I'm not sure what I am missing, but I can't seem to get my previously working axis configuration to load and save. Each time I close Acorn and reboot the wizard reverts to the Kl-5060E standard configuration.
I do have Automation Technology drives but they are Kl-8060E, and everything worked as it ...

Re: Machine suddenly going in wrong Z on ATC
Keith - So I went ahead and did the update after taking screen shots of all of the current configurations and I've worked all day today trying to get my machine back up. My version was old enough (but working) that there are new functions and configurations that my screen shots/version didn't have ...

Re: Machine suddenly going in wrong Z on ATC
I hear you but wouldn't that mess up the ability of the machine to get to the tool location? It travels perfectly in all directions to the tool holder then slides the tool in and then travels in the wrong direction? I would think a faulty wire would cause other issues before ever making it to the ...

Re: Machine suddenly going in wrong Z on ATC
CNC Keith, is all that really needed when the ATC function just suddenly stopped working? That's an awful lot of information to provide every time there is an issue.
It a retrofitted Multicam series A with an HSD spindle. The ATC is a linear rack. All the tool positions are mapped and have worked ...

Machine suddenly going in wrong Z on ATC
I haven't had much time to button up all my ATC issues but I did at least have a working macro and was making good tool changes. However, just yesterday I went to run a program that required a tool change as the first step in the program and everything worked great until the release was initialized ...

Re: MPG change battery issue
@slodat did centroid replace it? Mines not even a year old and it’s hardly been used.

Re: MPG change battery issue
UPDATE: while the wireless MPG actually connects and works as intended, the screen is stuck on “Chang battery”.

MPG change battery issue
I recently had to replace the batteries in my working wireless MPG. Now all I get is a message saying to change battery (Even after trying multiple fresh batteries).

Re: Help with ATC Macro for CNC Router
I’m making a little bit of progress here. I was able to combine the solenoids into one relay which worked great! Thanks for that!! Then I realized that they were producing enough kick that each time I hit them I’d get lose connection and have to restart CNC12. After adding some diodes to the ...
