I just assembled my brand new AVID and it went really smoothly. I can jog all axis and everything seems to work, but homing. When I home the machine all proximity sensors are detected and it drives the machine on all Axis to a hard stop. After that I get an error message that says that one of my proximity sensors is still trigerred after a hard stop and I have to re-adjust them. When I look at the machine both Y sensors and the X Sensor is triggered and the machine is still at the hard stop position. On Z the sensor is not triggered and the machine is 10mm lower than the hard stop position.
I readjusted all sensors in both directions but no change…
Hi Heiko, i have a question about the ex controller bundle, did you get yours as an upgrade or with a new machine? If you got it as an upgrade, did avid send you new rack and pinion mount plates or did the existing plates work with the servos?
I just took delivery of the upgrade version. You reuse the mount plates. The only new piece of hardware replaced is the motor pulley, the rest is swapped over.
Yeh, i got the same, i was just wondering because my invoice says rack and pinion upgrade kit. But nothing on the rack and pinion gets changed other than the pully which was a seperate line item.
