![]() ![]() Sometimes it stops and I get a 'Hit Stop Error' message on the screen. When I clicked resume I could re-start the spindle and it would go back to the job and finish it without any more problems. ![]() A dialog box wold show up on the screen giving me the option to resume. Other times it would it would pull up in the middle of a job and move to 0,0. If I shut it down for about an hour it would re-start then. When I attempted to re-start the frequency drive the contacts would make a lot of racket but it just wouldn't re-start. The Spindle would stop turning the x,y&z stopped moving and the frequency drive shut down. ![]() Sometimes it would stop in the middle of a cut. Except the Control Software wanted them set to normally open. Turns out it was referring to the E-Stops both of which are normally closed switches. Well I'd never run a ShopBot before and didn't have a clue what it meant so I did what it said and everything seemed to work ok. The first time I turned it on I got an error message about a switch that is normally closed should be set to normally open ands to use the VN command to change the setting. I'll try to describe the problem as best as I can but it will be difficult because it doesn't always do the same thing. I'm at the point now where I am going to have to turn down paying jobs because the machine won't complete a job. It's been going on for about a month now. I've been practicing on styrofoam but even that has become a problem because the Bot keeps crashing. It's brand new and I haven't even cut any wood yet. I have a PRSalpha with a 4HP HSD spindle. I sure could use some help from the experts out there. ![]()
