A corrupt Centurion 5 hard drive?
I recently bought an old Milltronics VM-16 A with a Centurion 5 controller. It had a bad x axis motor, so I decided to swap out the old dc motor for a somewhat newer Yaskawa SGDM 3 phase servo motor. I got everything mostly hooked up, but the servo motor just spins. It seems that when the machine is in estop, the X drive analog output from the computer is at 12 volts making the servo run at full speed. Not only does this seem odd to me, but it's driving me nuts since I can't debug the new servo motor.
So my question is, is this normal? I am also having some odd problems with the HMI. I disabled x homing as to help debug various problems. After successfully homing Z and Y (ignoring X) I can jog in one direction once. After the first jog, or jogging in the wrong direction, jogging does nothing. Handwheel page also doesn't work. This seems to me symptoms of a corrupt hard drive. And I am wondering if this is a part of the 12 volts e stop issue.
Is it possible to obtain the centurion 5 OS/program to install a new hard drive? Is my axis card bad? Am I just missing something?
