Ok Ladder gurus, I need a hand on tracking this alarm down.
Vertical lathe with a Fanuc 15tf model “A” PMC.
I have a pallet rinse that runs with an M50 call. When I run the M50 it alarms out with EX31 X-Z AXIS BAD POSITION. Now I do know it has to do with the proper position that the machine needs to be in on each axis. I had this problem before on the other machine and just kept changing my XZ until it finally took. I now want to figure out what it exactly needs to be.
Attached is the alarm, and part of the ladder it alarms out in circled. If I check diagnostic A003.7 it is high “1”. What I do not know is where to go from here. What am I looking for? Documentation is decent so I should be able to find anything you tell me to look for.
I always wanted to get my feet a bit more wet when it comes to tracking alarms and troubleshooting using the diagnostics and ladder. I suppose now is the time to do so.
Thanks guys,
Stevo
