I have an 'ambigious tool pocket' error that will not reset. Dual arm type changer.
SETTO,# does not work for some reason.
any ideas?

After another power down then turret rotation, apears OK. No idea what caused the fault in the first place tho.
Thanks

Back again.
It would appear that I am having an intermittent problem with the turret rotation. Going to check the proximity switch now.

type DI at enter next command and type DD you will goto the DATC diagnostics page . bets are that you are stuck slightly between buckets . use this menu to correct the problem .
if you need help just call the service department at 818 727 2100

--- you should be able to tell on the diagostics page if the switch is bad . at DI DD look at the bottom of the menu and you will see if it is open or closed on the switch ...

The pin that attaches the brake to the shaft had busted.
