Fadal 6030 startup problems.
-Hey all, I'm new around here. Been lurking for some time, but this is my first post.
My company bought a 1996 Fadal 6030HT from an equipment broker a few weeks ago. We finally got it under power a few days ago, and I'm trying to get it up and running. Upon startup (main power on, green CNC button after a few seconds) my screen is just displaying gibberish. random symbols and characters, controls unresponsive. After some reading and research, I learned that a jumber across J2 on the CPU board boots the machine into diagnostic mode. As I go through and run the diagnostic tests, I get a failure when testing the clocks. it reads "INT 6 -FAILED- (PRESS MANUAL)"
I've pulled all the boards from the backplane, cleaned contacts, reseated boards and chips. What's my next step? Any advice is appreciated!
cheers-
-G
