Re: Yet more problems
You have tons of com errors in your error log and you have to fix these before you can go any further. It can also cause no motor movement as the PC and Acorn are not communicating properly. These com errors have to be resolved before proceeding, please take the time to follow the details in TB270 a...

Re: only motion on one axis
No apology needed, it's just real hard to follow along and help others when the same issue is scattered over multiple posts.

Re: only motion on one axis
Terry, please keep all your questions and replies in the same topic so people can follow along. If you post a new topic for every question about the same issue it's be REAL hard to follow along.

Re: Limit alarms when trying to home
It's probably not setup correctly. Please post a current report from the machine so we can see how it's setup.

Re: ethernet communication errors...wits end
Have a look at your error report, it's no wonder nothing works. Here's a sample of your error log below. Dive into tech bulletin 270 and 309 and find out where your noise is coming from. Post pics of your cabinet wiring. Are you using shielded wire where it's recommended/required? (4) 05-04-2024 12:...

Re: Tool Change Macro Help
As noted by the other responses, if you want "hand holding" it costs money. I for one would not want to see an additional $240 added to he price of my Acorn when ANY answer you could possibly want can be found here for free. The info and knowledge on this forum is second to none when it co...

Re: Tool Change Macro Help
..... Centroid is not very helpful in getting one "up and running" in this regard. Its up to the customer to sift through long and complicated manuals and ultimately trial and error. Centroid could not possibly include a generic M6 for what you want to do. Why? Because no two machines wil...

Re: Tool touch off and probe help needed
Thanks Nigel. I enlarged the pic he sent and I clearly see a DM-542 drive which takes up to 50VDC. The other drive I cannot quite make out looks to be a DM860T (I see the last 3 letters/numbers in the part number being 60T) which takes up to 80 VDC. The amazon links show totally different drives so ...
