So the hydraulics are good it is just the button does nothing when pushed. I think what is maybe happening is perhaps the chuck is not enabled in the PLC settings. And so the button does nothing.
Anyone haven any idea which bits I need to toggle to enable the chuck on a Emco 340 with a Siemens 810T GA 1 control? This is the last thing I need to sort to have a working machine so any help would be greatly appreciated.
