Need Help!- Bridgeport Interact 2 Series 2 TNC2500

[theo1]

Hello all,
I'm pretty new to the forum and bit of a newbie with CNC maintenance.
Hopefully someone can help me. Ive already looked through the history of threads, and people are having similar problems but not identical, so thought Id ask.
We have a Interact 2 Series 2 with TNC2500.
Just had the machine installed and wired up.
When power on the machine does the normal memory check, then 'Power Interupted'. So then I press CE and the machine progresses to the screen for passing over the reference marks. All good so far.
When 'ENABLE' button is presses, the machine errors out.
The error code is 'GROSS POSITIONING ERROR X D'.


From looking online, it seems there could be a few causes for this.
Any suggestions anyone.
Thanks in advance
Theo

To quote from the Heidenhain web site

"Standstill Monitoring
- The deviation from the nominal position of an axis in
standstill has exceeded the value programmed in
machine parameter 1110.
- The nominal position was moved beyond during
positioning (overshooting)."

could be the limits of the machine are not correct check your parameters

He has not pressed the GO button to initiate motion. Sounds like motion has started on the X axis without being asked. Probably a BOSCH drive issue.
Did the machine run before you bought it?

George,I think he`s calling the enable button GO.

Theo,Is it off the reference marks when it asks you to reference?
Is X the top line?
It should be Z on top.
Someone may have been messing with the parameters
