Machine Hours Reset???

[WGJ]

Exactly my point. This is like the odometer in your car. It should be illegal (or impossible) to change.

On a 2000 model machine the spindle and axis time data cannot be re-loaded. However for machines that are now 2-3 years old or newer, that data is reloaded on a 'normal' software update. It is not usually loaded when a new processor is fitted - although it can be done.
hope this helps

You might want to check your facts a little. Machine hours cannot be reloaded after software or processor change. They get reset to zero.

It just so happens that our 2007 SL-10 did have a software update and the tech DID reload the machine hours. Maybe this cannot be done after a processor board, or on earlier machines, but it worked on ours for the update.

I do agree that these hours should be transferred like miles on an odometer.

OK. Time to summarize this thread in one post.

Those numbers are either correct or incorrect.

The hours posted in the picture above are NOT accurate.
