E-stop ???

[drill]

Anyone know about hurco kmb1 w/bx controller I have an estop problem
after I load master. Like to know how I can get around it or test it.
Thanks.

sounds like you got your master loaded, eh?...is the emergency button pressed? turn to release if it is...

[hurcojohn]

does the message simply say emergency stop or does something follow that...also, what version software did you load?

Hey john, Yes the e stop is out not in. I got vers. 1.7 something. I am new to the hurcos not to cnc so here are some questions, but how do I get the machine to zero. also the spindle brake should that be on when I power up the machine, I press brake on control and hear a click but nothing, When I go to press power on it does not stay on. I can not remember if there is any more to the e stop alarm but I am sure thats all it said was emergency stop.

Iam at work not in my shop I work 2nd shift so I am planning on being up very late to see if I can get it to work. What hours you working days or nights?

[hurcojohn]

do you have air supplied to the machine? (it is necessary... or you can TEMPORARILY jump the pressure switch out)...are you sure about software 1.7?...seems the master you need is like 53.50b3 or something like that...i work days...

[hurcojohn]

what ended up being the master loading issue if you don't mind me asking...

[drill]

yes I have air to the machine and the master is 5150b3. How do I go about doing that

[drill]

Dos and some other computer mumbo jumbo. but it was dos mostly.

[hurcojohn]

good so running in dos mode did help...when you hit the power on switch does the cor relay (inside the right cabinet) latch in and stay on?

[drill]

no I ended up with new proms and a window system now. what is cor relay and what latch

[hurcojohn]

control on relay in the cnc (right side) cabinet, and by latch in i mean does it energize and stay on...
