The problem was the original 24 vdc power supply. It was just a bridge rectifier and did not provide a stable enough signal to keep the inputs energized.
INP10 Spindle Inverter OK, and INP11 EStop OK where becoming intermittent, but only when the Spindle was energized in Auto.

I temporally rerouted the Ecat cables with that being said its been up for about 20 hours with no problems.
The next issue is that this is a vertical lathe and Z axis is having trouble with inertia in a -Z move.
Can you help size a regen resistor.

Correct pic for Hickory board

The system has been up and running for several days with centroid supplied ecat cables with no changes to the routing.
The machine is idle when this happens, nothing being energized or de-energized and the x and z are not in motion.
The only coils without snubbers are the e-stop relays and that will ...

Scratch that still having the same problem.
When the system goes down, all inputs on the plc monitoring screen go red but all inputs on the hickory board are still energized.
The Yaskawa drives for z and x go into a "aa12" fault. This does not happen right at start up but rather after the machine ...
