Title: POkeys 56U
Post by: artkraft on July 04, 2013, 11:44:49 AM
Having problems with pokeys. Came installed with Mach Motion system.
Some days it works fine all day. Next thing I need a feed hold for a problem and no response. Some times reboot helps sometimes not.
Any one else with the problem. Also noted that the elapse timer was not running. Any connection.
2 PCs, 2 Operator Panels, 3 hard drives and still no answers.
Many other problems:
DROs went black
Touch screen lockups.
Always need to toggle Jog off/on to get keyboard to work.
G code for .300 lead in but on any outside part it does 1" . Sometimes it does a hook on every other part.(when it wants).

This has been a 2 year nightmare and Mach Motion doesn't have an answer and will not replace again. Don't blame them. They have given me all the support they can.

I'm ready to buy a whole new system.

Make sure your root hubs are not set to switch off to save power, the SmoothStepper could suffer issues for some people if that option was  chosen, see screenshot.
