EX CNC 12 Spindle/Plasma

Hi Eric and guys I have received and connected new Ex controller with servo upgrade I’m running in to few issues I spent some time trying to figure this out maybe someone or Eric can help and clarify few things.

  1. When in router profile and I run the acorn wizard select my machine model as CNC PRO with servo than in the accessories under Rotary/Dual Use I select Dual Z with plasma.
    When I try to home the machine all axis including Z and U home but the U axis in the machine coord. doesn’t zero out and it says [923 Error: Z home not set] and it won’t allow to do anything.
    One thing to mention is if I set the acorn wizard in 3 axis only without the U axis everything works fine.

  2. When in Plasma profile and I run the acorn wizard select my machine model as PRO PLASMA CNC with servo than in the accessories under Rotary/Dual Use I select plasma with second Z.
    When I try to home the machine, I get an error code [9031 DRIVE FAIL] and even when I set the acorn wizard with 3 axis only it does the same thing. I can’t home the machine not even move it, I have my Hypertherm powered hooked up to as well to the controller.

  3. I know when the vfd is not powered the machine faults and turns the motors off does this happen in plasma mode as well if the plasma is not powered?

  4. When switching between Router and plasma does it require to switch the servo motor Z -U axis cables?

  5. When I press reset on the control panel and the servo motors get power the X axis makes a step or a jog with a loud sound for a split secund is that normal only the X axis?

I talked to few guys in the forum, and they were not sure to I’m sure this would clarify a lot to few people.
Thank You
