    Can't home Z 500 over travel alarm

    Talent 8/52
    oi-TC control

    Everything was working fine yesterday.

    Today when I powered up X homed fine.
    Z gave a alarm 500, Z overtavel.

    Not sure how to troubleshoot this.

    I'm looking at the censors in the back but and not sure how they work with the parameters. I see two ramped sensors. the sensor falls off the ramp about .100 before the overtravel alarm.

    Thanks for any help.
    Sure would like a trouble shooting guide for this machine!

    Try the following. Shut off machine, hold "P" and "Can" together and restart machine.Hold untill startup is complete. Then try to re-home.

    I was reluctant to do this because on my control, the O and the P hard key are the same button. Found a link that said the same thing. Asked tech and he said the same thing.

    It worked. Thanks for your help.
