I just purchased a Tree Journeyman 330 w/ a Dynapath 10. When I fired it up it went through the prelimenary check and came up ok. When I continued it brought up the home page and then kept flashing:
Fault
or
Message
I couldn't get it to clear or the fault to display. Does anyone have any ideas? Also, I couldn't get the axis to jog.

First, I would check all the connectors to/from the cnc control, then if you have an electrical drawing, use a multimeter to check out voltage along the estop chain circuit. Make sure the xyz axis are not sitting on an overtravel switch or a switch is not stuck down. Finally, are you sure the supply voltage and polarity is correct?

After further tinkering I found some corrosion on the connector for the keyboard. I cleaned it up but still no luck. I then started putting various strains on the connector and pushing the fault button. I got it to go to the fault condition page one time and it was just telling me to zero the axis's, however I couldn't get it to do it again. I desoldered the connector and picked up a new one today. It seems that all the keys on the left side do not work and on further review of the keybaord I noticed they were all on the same circuit. I hope this fixes it!
