HAAS VF7 Program "Jumping"
Thanks everyone for looking into this post and for any information you can offer. I am currently having issues with our VF7 machine we are experiencing program "jumping" while running a program. By this I mean that we could be running say "Program A" and randomly throughout the code, it will change in the top program title to reflect that it is running Program B. It does not actually run this other program it finishes running the one we originally started in, and when it finishes displays Program A again in the title block. The interesting thing is the programs are located on a hard drive that is mapped to the CNC, so it is pulling the programs up from separate folders on this hard drive and displaying it is running them when it is in face not running them. I wanted to get a good idea of what would cause this and if one day we could see it actually run the program that randomly displays, I think we all know how awful that could be. Does anyone have any idea how this could have happened? I want to get a better understanding of this I sure do not enjoy not knowing what is going on with this machine.
