• If the feedrate is less than 120 ipm and inconsistent in both directions, check the
incoming AC voltage and mechanics of the drive train.
4.9.2.4 CODE 123: Calibration
See Section 5.2.2 for a further explanation of this code.
4.9.2.5 CODE 127 - Set X or Y Backlash Constant
See Section 5.2.2 for a further explanation of this code.
4.9.2.6 CODE 128: Input Backlash Constant
Code 128 allows you to enter the backlash values for each axis. It displays the value after it
enters. This code is only used on machines with motor encoders only.
4.9.2.7 Code 304: Toggles X sensor or glass scale on/off
This service code toggles the X sensor or glass scale on or off. It is used to configure the
machine and also is a useful tool for troubleshooting. Code 313 (configuration file) displays
whether the sensors have been turned on or off. The line labeled secondary feedback
explains which sensors or glass scales are turned on. This line can read any one of the
following:
0 = sensors or glass scales turned off
1 = X sensor or glass scale turned on only
2 = Y sensor or glass scale turned on only
3 = both X and Y sensor or glass scale turned on
4.9.2.8 Code 305: Toggles Y sensor or glass scale on/off
This service code toggles the Y sensor or glass scale on or off. See Code 304 for further
explanation.
4.9.2.9 Code 321: Reverse Y position sensor direction
This service code reverses the direction of the encoder. It may be needed if sensors or glass
scales are mounted on different sides of the machine.
4.9.2.10 Code 322: Reverse X position sensor direction
This service code reverses the direction of the encoder. It may be needed if sensors or glass
scales are mounted on different sides of the machine.
4.9.2.11 Code 325: Reverse Quill Sensor Direction
This service code reverses the direction of the encoder.
4.9.3 Diagnostic Codes
The following codes are used primarily when diagnosing a problem with the machine. To get
to any of these codes go to Service Codes, press “C” and press the code you wish to view.
4.9.3.1 Code 54: Program Continuous Run
This Code runs a program continuously without stopping for SET Z or CHECK Z commands. It
is helpful in running a long period to identify an intermittent problem.
1. Prepare a program as you normally would.
2. Press MODE, SET UP, “C”, Code 54, INC SET. The program run will start automatically.
3. Press STOP to stop, and GO to continue.
