I recently purchased an Arrow 500 and have been considering installing a 4th axis (or 5th if you count the spindle). All the wiring and connectors are present and in good shape. However, I have no idea if my installation of the s/w has this feature enabled. Anyone know where I look to see if my machine is licensed for the extra axis? |

Hello to check if the 4th axis option is enabled press MORE press SYSTEM CONFIGURATION press PURCHASED OPTIONS page down and look at option 20 - 1ST ADDITIONAL AXIS. If it is marked as PERMANENT then you can use the axis. all Arrows were wired to accept a 4th axis so all connections should be present, however it is probable that you will need a Kollmorgen 6 amp drive. check in the panel and see if there is a 4th axis drive present. standard machines have a power supply, spindle drive and 3 axis drives (x,y,z). for 4th axis you would need another drive. e-mail me at mallardfizz@virginmedia.com if any more questions regards mallardfizz |
