Troubleshooting 63
MISC.
ERRORS
~"Error: X Axis", "Error: Y
Axis" – or - "Error: Z
Axis".
~Limit switch tripped before
axis reached it.
~Tower sensed erroneous trip from limit
switch before axis reached it. Faulty switch,
cable or connection.
~Axis cannot move to next
position.
~Mechanical obstruction to movement of axis.
Check for debris wedged between
components, Vacuum Shroud Pressure Foot
catching in cut line, etc.
~Servo-Amp overload. ~Drag on axis. Low dc volts to Servo-Amp.
Excessive Positioning Rate, Excessive
VacShroud pressure against material, etc.
~Tower sensed problem in E-
Stop circuitry.
~Tower sensed loss of E-Stop Circuit, shut
down Servo-Amp power circuit. Cannot rotate
motor to generate encoder signals. Check &
repair E-Stop components as required.
~"Error: X
Encoder/Motor"
"Error: Y Encoder/Motor"
or "Error: Z coder/Motor".
~Tower sensing insufficient or
excess Encoder counts.
~Motor, Encoder or wiring problem.
~Rear, Right or "Jumped" (Z) Limit Switch
signal to Tower during power-up.
~Tower sensed loss of E-Stop Circuit, shut
down Servo-Amp power circuit. Cannot rotate
Motor to generate Encoder signals. Check &
repair E-Stop components as required.
~"Error: X Polarity
Reversed"
"Error: Y Polarity
Reversed" or "Error: Z
Polarity Reversed".
~Encoder count feedback
indicates backward motion.
~Check Limit Switch and cabling in the
opposite direction of travel for the affected
axis. A signal from the (-) Limit Switch while
the axis is travelling in the (+) direction will
generate this error code.
~"Error: Fault in X Axis"
"Error: Fault in Y Axis" or
"Error: Fault in Z Axis".
~Motor Servo Amplifier
problem.
~Check Servo-Amp Board, circuit & wiring for
the affected axis. Repair/replace as required.
~"Spindle I/O Failure" ~Tower cannot communicate
with Spindle Motor Controller.
~Spindle Controller not powered on.
~Serial cable or DUART Card harness is
disconnected or faulty.
~DUART Card faulty. Move the harness from
P-2 to P-3 connector and retry.
~Spindle Controller in error condition. Refer to
Manual in Controller for error diagnostic.
~"Error: Interrupt [x]" - x
being a number
~Tower sensed a problem
outside it's programming and
cannot identify it.
~Reset System and retry. Repeated
Interrupts may require Control Board
replacement.
~"Error: Plot Data
Command"
~Tower received commands in
unknown format.
~Job type must be set to "GERBER" in Sabre
Setup Menu, page 3.
~Sabre firmware and ART Path Software
must be compatible.
~"Error: Invalid Code x" ~Illegal G-Code command
received.
~Job type must be set to "G-CODES" in
Sabre Setup Menu, page 3.
G-CODE
SPECIFIC
ERRORS
~"Error: Table Bounds
Violation" (followed by X
and Y coordinates)
~G-Code command attempted
to move one or more axes
outside of active cutting area
of table.
~Modify G-Code job to ensure all movement
is within the active cutting area of the table.
