3.2 Problems Regarding the Motion of the Machine
3.2.1 Run Away Axis
The axis makes an unwanted move at rapid speed in one direction and faults out. This is usually caused
by an encoder signal being interrupted.
Do the following Service Codes:
Code 33 Software Identification. This is needed if you call Customer Service
Code 100 Axis open loop test. Used to check the maximum feedrate of an axis and if the
encoders are counting properly
Possible Cause
Check This
Newall scales are counting in
opposite direction of motor encoder
Reverse directions with codes 321 and 322
The home positions or tools are not
set correctly
See the Controls Programming, Operations and Care manual.
The Sensor or Glass Scale is not
reading.
See TRAK Sensors or Glass Scales diagnostic Section 4.6 or 4.7

The axis slows down and moves at a feedrate that is lower than rapid or than the programmed feedrate.
Do the following Service Codes:
Code 33 Software Identification. This is needed if you call Customer Service
Code 100 Axis open loop test. Used to check the maximum feedrate of an axis and if the
encoders are counting
Code 129 Set's the maximum allowable arc accuracy error. This applies to arcs only
Possible Cause
Check This
