i goofed... burned a z axis servo. moved machine and left gibs tight from when i lifted it, and started to re-tram Z from move. Axis moved just fine... but little servo got real hot until I realised what I did.
it's a industrial hobbies (RF45 style) mill. It has Gecko 320 drivers,Mach3, and servos.
After i realized what I did, shut off machine to allow servo to cool (it was still working fine) when I restarted it Z no longer worked.
I replaced servo, and new one faults when limit on Gecko is anywhere over 30%. Gain and damp have no effect at all.
I swapped driver from a working axis... and Z acts bad still.
I replaced encoder, still doesn't work. Did I burn out a prarallel cable or parallel card? I'm stumped and need to get this running again, any suggestions greatly appreciated!
Mach3's DRO does show movement, but no movement from servo
