Z Position
State – Numerical Value (0.000)
The Z position sensor monitors the relative position of the up-and-down
motion of the cutting truck. To check this sensor move the cutting truck all
the way to the top of its vertical travel and record the displayed numerical
value. Now move the truck all the way to the bottom of its vertical travel
and then back to the top. If the sensor is operating correctly the displayed
value will match the one previously recorded.
X Position
State – Numerical Value (0.000)
The X position sensor monitors the relative movement of the sandpaper
belt drives. This is more difficult to check but can be done by pushing the
front belt towards the back of the machine by hand. The displayed
numerical value will change as the belt turns.
Brd Tracking
State – Numerical Value (0.000)
The Board Tracking sensor tracks the position of the workpiece as it
travels in and out of the machine. A small brass wheel rides along the
bottom side of the material and provides position information to the control
system. It is extremely important that the workpiece have a very flat and
defect free surface 3/8” in from the edge on the bottom side of the
workpiece in order to operate correctly. To check the operation of this
sensor first make sure that the brass wheel on the board tracking sensor
has the black rubber o-ring in place and is spinning freely. Spin the wheel
and verify that the value displayed on the LCD is changing.
Probe State
State – Open/Closed
With no probe installed, the Probe State will be displayed as Open. The
operation of the probe can be checked while installed in the quick changer
and plugged into the connector. Once installed the LCD will read Closed.
To check the operation of the probe simply reach in and deflect the probe
tip to the side. If the probe is operating correctly the displayed state will
change from Closed to Open.
Cut Sensor
State – Numerical Value (0)
This sensor monitors the RPM of the cutting motor and feeds that
information back into the control logic. As a quick check, spin the spindle
by hand and check to see that the displayed numerical value changes. It
reads one count for every revolution. At low speeds it will only change
from 0 to 1 or 2.
