I have just received this machine, with dead backup batteries. The machine has been "reset."
I've got a nice pamphlet with my machine's serial number printed on it, with the Parameter list.
I've entered the parameters, and the machine starts up with no error messages.
(one operator message, about the "door interlock")
So far the only motion I can get out of the machine is:
jogging the Z-axis up and down,
jogging the ATC
orienting the spindle
No other jogging responds to the buttons or handle. The spindle doesn't turn on either....although all of the drives show "00" on their readouts which I understand to mean "ready."
I am in greenville South Carolina, and hoping to get hooked up with someone familiar with this machine/control.
I can keep going back and forth with leadwell support in Texas and I'm sure I'll figure things out, but I'd be much happier to pay someone familiar to come help me trouble shoot and help me get past the learning curve of a control I'm not familiar with. This is my first VMC. I have run a bridgeport torquecut and some Haas machines in the past, and I did run a Hardinge lathe with a Fanuc Control for a bit.
Any contacts/suggestions?
Thanks,
Carl
