If the solutions suggested above do not solve your problem,
contact Newall for further instruction.
To swap encoders to trace a fault:
1. Check that the two axes are set to the correct encoder
types.
2. Disconnect the C80 power supply.
3. Move the encoder from the malfunctioning axis to a working
axis.
4. Reconnect the C80 power supply and turn on.
If the fault stays with the same encoder, then the encoder is at
fault. If the fault does not follow with the encoder the C80 is at
fault.
Providing you have not moved the machine more
than 6.3mm (0.25”) for a Spherosyn Encoder or
2.5mm (0.1”) for a Microsyn Encoder, switching the
power off and back on again does not lose the datum
position.
