Problem- Renishaw TS27R Probe

[dspeights]

We have a Fadal 4020 vmc that is equipped with the Renishaw TS27R tool setting probe. The probe works great when operating correctly, but it has broken 2 break stems recently. Operator observed that when working correctly that machine will rapid in x and y to get over stylus and then Z FEEDS down to the top of probe. Both times that the stylus has broken these movements are reversed ( x and y FEED and then Z rapids down.) If you power machine off and on it goes back to operating correctly. Any ideas as to what could cause this? Thanks.

you may have corrupted memory files or the memory may be too full.give the command ME and see if there is more than 15% avilable memory you should never fill the machine more than this because the cpu will act up in odd ways.youy also should do a zero memory to clean up the files,the procedure is in the manual.
