Re: Probe PLC Input Not Set Error Message
use the Wizard to define what the inputs are for and then wire accordingly. there are no fixed input definitions.
every schematic we publish has the inputs and outputs used on the schematic in a table. follow the schematic and follow the table.

Re: Fanuc Robodrill
Engineering responded to my question regarding internal positioning profiles which are available on some drives. In this case it appears no there isn't an option for that. They do allow up to 4 "home" positions so you can clock the spindle in up to 4 discrete positions, but there doesn't ...

Re: 452 Ethernet Communication Error, (AvidCNC EX controller)
Problem Solved: It was the static charge that the dust collection was creating. I disconnected the hose, and that took care of it. I'll ground the dust collector and the body of the CNC, and it should be good . Thanks for all your help. thanks for reporting back. i need to give my crystal ball a ra...

Re: 452 Ethernet Communication Error, (AvidCNC EX controller)
^^^This. When I saw "only under load" I immediately thought higher currents = more EMF. Made suggestions to minimize noise. Just because Avid did it, doesn't mean it was done correctly. yeah for sure, that being said, the avid controller could also be just fine and the issue is stemming f...

Re: 452 Ethernet Communication Error,
"only under load" is most likely noise related. how about some photos of your install otherwise we are just guessing. is the machine grounded? i've seen the dust collection system put all kinds of static into the CNC when both are not drained properly. have you tried the Avid forum? as we ...
