Testing G-Code issue

[adstaggs]

I am running some gcode for testing my plasma cutter but it stops then gets a Alarm Touch Error, do I need to have the plasma cutter powered on and air connected to get this to test?

Can you please provide some more details of your setup, such as what THC you are using and what THC settings have you done on MASSO. Please provide all the details of your setup and requirement.

 

[adstaggs]

I have a THC Proma 150 and setup as per your documentation.

 

[masso-support]

So have you wired the torch touch switch to one of the MASSO inputs and assigned it to "Torch Touch Signal Input" ?

 

[adstaggs]

yes

 

[masso-support]

so your Z axis comes down, touches the work piece, stops and set that as Z0.00?

Do you have a photo of the alarm?

 

[adstaggs]

No the X and Y moves to the point to start to cut but the Z never moves down and triggers the alarm.

1. Firstly please load v3.31 that was emailed a few weeks back, if you haven't received the copy then let us know your serial number and we will resend. its good to run the latest version of the software.
   
2. Can you check and see if the torch touch input shows L or H when its not triggered.
   

 

[adstaggs]

this is what I am running now, did not get the update.

MASSO Plasma 5-Axis Update v3.29.1a (Tester Release) for Serial No. 5A-2119

 

[masso-support]

1. Just resent the software now, can you please check your SPAM and JUNK folders.
   
2. Also were you able to check the above mentioned signal?

install v3.31 now my Y axis will not home gives a homing error

 

[masso-support]

Can you check homing input has been set for Y axis and it only shows H status when the homing switch/sensor is triggered.

 

[adstaggs]

X and Z home and show H when its triggered but the Y never moves, it was homing fine v3.29a

 

[adstaggs]

I notice when I install the v3.31 I get a white screen but no percent screen, I wait for the green led to stop blinking then reboot and login but still no action on Y axis.

 

[masso-support]

I am a bit confused, can we talk on skype or phone?

 

[adstaggs]

what is a good time to call and the phone number

 

[masso-support]

We can talk anytime after 9am (Sydney, Australia) time.

Can you please email on support@masso.com.au your skype ID and some idea on your availability and timezone.
