OK, so I know there has been threads on this, I have read them. It didn't help me though, as I tried the easy stuff mentioned but not sure what the rest meant.
My machine is a Wabeco 1410 LF running Mach 3 and MDA Precision supplied the control unit on the machine.
I have never had any issues over the 2 years I have owned it, and it has had very little use. A few times it has stopped and gave a Stepper motor error, but that has happened only a few times and not for the last 6 months.
So currently I can machine nothing, as when I try to run a file, it trips on the Y axis and says ''limit switch triggered'' and the next line says ''E stop requested'' It also does this at start up, and never said that before.
I can jog the machine using the key board without issue and never had this error before at all.
So in the other threads it has been mentioned ''noise'' can likely be the issue. OK, well I confess I am lost there.
I have checked the debounce settings that were mentioned and mine was extremely high as it is, way higher than suggestions given. I changed it to about 5 different settings anyway and no luck.
So next people are talking about ceramic caps and noise shielding, but I have no idea what is meant by this.
Since it worked fine for 2 years in the same location , surely there must be any easy fix that does not require a degree in electronics?
Help, please
