Arrow 500 problems

[snap1202]

Hallo all together
iam new here and this is my first post here so please forget me some mistakes i make.iam a student from germany and my english is not the best.

so now lets come to my problem
i have get an arrow500 mashine with some problems
1.the maschine was long time without cuurent and the only thinks i know is that the last error was 9036 filesystem corrupted
2.the preowner of the machine formated drive c: and d:
3. i get an backup disk with the machine witch contains folowing datas
cnc_com.exe/Config.txt/Main.plc/plc_NV.sys/ax_off.sys/comp.mc/m_code.sp/Main.soc/s0000.sp/msg1.sys

4. so what i have do till now ist to copy the main.soc to drive d:
the Main.PLC to drive c: config.txt to c: but if i copy the s0000.sp data to c:
and start the machine by booting the machine said error memory full
5.my next problem is that i have no parameters (global;axis,etc.)

maybe there is somebody out to tell me how to get the machine back to life
and wich of the data i exactli i need and the proper way to get them into the machine.maybe somebody with a working arrow 500 who can send me the parameters and maybe the files i need and dont have.
the machine has an CT control (maxax servodrive etc.)

with best regards

I sent you a PM but you can ignore it.
I have attached the procedure and files required to reload the entire system. You will need a PC running DOS with a serial port to reload it. The files required do not quite fit on a floppy so the procedure needs to be run from the hard drive.

first thank you for the files.

so now what i have tried
i have an formated c and d drive
i have copy the main.sp file on d:
and the main.plc to c:
by starting the machine an error ocurrs that the main.sp is not compiled with the correct compiler my revision is 2.98 yours is 2.568

when i take my old main.sp file and your main.plc the machine starts
but said no nv parameters in the moment i ad the s0000 file to drive c: the machine said error :memory full at startup

can you maybe ecplain me the installation in the right steps????

I think you need to reload the entire system from the files I provided.

yes i tried this i have formated all drives but i think the major problem is the main .soc i cant install yours because the wrong compilation by installing software on the test mode i have also the problem that the maschine check the flashdrives and said ok
but than when it beginns to install the cnc.prc the maschine said cheksum error at line127.
is there a possibility to clear all including the rev2.98
and install completly you files????

I can't answer your question.
The authority on these machines is Rob Varney at MAG Technologies.
I used to have his phone number but cannot find it, not that it would help you much over there.

Mr. Can you send me the serial number of your arrow machine and the serial number of your Acramatic 2100 control.
That is because you lost the files in your CNC and you will need a complete software in your hard drive and to get the exactly software I need to know what model of numerical control do you have.

His control is a Control Techniques FNC not a Seimens Acramatic 2100.

when i take my old main.sp file and your main.plc the machine starts
but said no nv parameters in the moment i ad the s0000 file to drive c: the machine said error :memory full at startup

Here is some info on fixing the NV Parameters problem.

Error 7001 NV Parameters (non-volatile) not set. To fix this;
Control-D
4 - MTB Mode
Password: CM (it does not show as you type, Type in CM and press "enter" and it should pass this screen)
3 PLC NV Param
(the only two that have to be reset are NV1 and NV24
NV1 ATC DOWN POSN = approx -121100 (specific to machine)
NV24 MTB OPTIONS= 1
(Note: use the data input key to enter above values. Enter key appears to work but values do not stay after exiting Diagnostics)
