help p/s 224 error

[pwe169]

Hi all,
I have a bridgeport vmc1000II 3 axis mill with fanuc control. Whilst dnc controlling it this evening it stopped operating. After I reset it I get a p/s error 224 when I attempt to run any code. I cant even do a m06 via vmi - error 224 comes up which after a few minutes is followed by a m06 time out alarm.
Does anyone have any ideas???

As usual this has happened as I am doing a rush job!!!!!

Look in the FANUC maintenance manual. It has an alarm list.
Or call FANUC. They are very helpful.

Hi,
Thanks for the answer. Checked that but the Fanuc manual goes up to 128 then starts again at 300 so I think the fault must be Hardinge specific. However I started the machine again this morning and the fault is now clear. Any more ideas?

Some faults associated with the drives are fatal and require a power off. Some may be thermal. Thus a cool down could get you going again. When I get a few minutes at the office, I will do some digging.
Also , try not shutting your machine off and looking at the fanuc units for an alarm code.
