General Mach Discussion / Re: CAUTION! User LED's Turn on with opening wizards
« on: February 20, 2013, 02:42:15 AM »
Hi Hood,
Mach version .062.
Simple Threading Wizard. Normally, unless you installed additional ones, there are only two in the list - Simple Threadin and Turning. I probably should have checked the Turning one as well, but I didn't. I reckon it would be the same with that one as well.
LED numbers 1003 and 1005.
In the mean time we added a safety feature - a hardware button that goes directly to the PLC and the PLC would wait for both that button and signal from Mach to start homing. Don't think we would revert this and use merely the signal from Mach as we can't trust it anymore after seeing this happen. Who knows what else could then trigger those LED's. What if it would happen with a boring bar inside a part!
Very, very strange and scary!
