Oh wow.......!   Ade, how far are the Jag and the Mazak from each other? Can they yell at each other in the night...."No man, it's my turn tomorrow......"  :)

I gotta go out and buy another pound of popcorn kernels.....this should be a hell of a duet!  :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:  :beer:

AdeV:
Thanks all! I'm just glad I've got the space & electricity supply to run them all...

Unfortunately, it looks like 4th time unlucky.... I can't get the NC to boot up, just get a flashing cursor on the screen. Virtually none of the LEDs on the circuit boards light up, and random pressing of the various reset buttons has no effect. I've got 2 lights on on the control panel (start & stop both lit), and the various counters are lit up showing zeros. Some of the lights come on when you press buttons, but not all.

So... next stop, find a hardware reference manual & start troubleshooting...

awemawson:
Unless the back up batteries have been changed regularly it will probably have lost all it's parameters, however you'd expect the controller to come up into a basic interface to reload them  :scratch:

AdeV:
Yep, chances are the parameters are toast... which is going to slow me down - there's a couple of people over on CNC zone who claim to be running the same machine, so hopefully I can touch one of them for the parameters.... when I get to that stage. I think there's something more fundamental wrong at the moment.

Biggles:
I hear you have plenty of renewables up north. lots of windmills for the leki!  :zap: :zap: :thumbup:
