Well i am new so i had the gibs too tight on X and Y at first, so once i fixed that i haven't had any issues with those so far. I have a program i have been running that's really simple and don't have any issues out of it for X and Y, but 9 times out of 10 when Z returns to 0 it faults. The more i a...

Might there be any alignment issues or binding at the top of the Z? I assume you can't use the tuning feature in the DMMDRV? Or try? I will try it again i cant remember at what point i tried it, but i have tried it before and it failed. I will see if they can do that for me, but i have only got a h...

When it faulted, it looks like you hit the hard stop. No it didn't make it to the hard stop or Home Z0, i have attached photos showing were it faulted and were Home Z0 is. What size motors are those? NEMA 23 or 34 and what wattage? 86MM/750W so pretty much Nema 34 Model Is 86M-DHT-A6MK1 (Specs atta...

When i fire everything up the motors are free until i move a access. They are the same way they were the other day when we talked on the phone. Unchecked in DMM and Enable is checked in Acorn wizard on all axis. So i was saying, i will try it with Z axis motor free and motor locked to see if there w...

IMG_0326.jpeg Well i swapped everything over to the Y axis drive and still getting solid red faults this is what i wrote back to DMM. They asked me to take the torque constant down to 50. I changed the Torque Constant up to 127 because I assumed it wasn’t used because the manual said it wasn’t used...

I agree with Tom, easy test, disconnect the X axis Step/Dir wires from Acorn and see if the problem persists. I think you have a noise issue. Noise is creating "pulses" and the drive sees them as such. Yesterday DMM finally answered back and this is what we done. I disconnected the acorn ...

Ok, I will work on that today and report back. I swapped motors already and issue stayed with Z i will swap drives and re program to current Z axis settings and see what happens. Also my X drive now wont hold position and will keep rotating backwards? When it moves backwards my DRO doesn't even chan...

When you get a DRIVE FAULT message, what do the LED indicators on the DRIVES show? WHICH one is faulted? Only one particular drive? None of the drives? Green is normal, flashing read is a fault. When it is in a FAULT mode, go into DMMDRV and read from the drive, it will give you the status of the dr...

It just faulted out and i have not changed anything. The light is solid this time, most times i remember looking i recall it was blinking. I have attached photos and log.

In looking at your report, if you have DMM Drives programmed to 2000 in Gear and Line, you have the counts incorrect in the Wizard: Axis Label Motor Encoder Lash Comp. Limit Home Dir Screw revs/in counts/rev. (inches) - + - + Rev Comp 1 X 6.4000 2000 0.0000 0 0 0 0 Y N 2 Y 6.0000 2000 0.0000 0 0 0 0...
