Hi I have recently bought a Fanuc Triac Machine, I have it all connected in my workshop but am unable to home it.
When I turned I have a Y overtravel alarm.
The table does seem very far forward.
I have tried using the axis override button but it does not clear the 'not ready' flashing on the screen or allow me to jog the axis.
The P+Can trick also didn't work.
Could someone also confirm the process for homing the machine as the manual isn't too clear on this.

Re: Fanuc Triac Overtravel Alarm
It looks like it has gone past the Y axis datum switch!
You will need to press & hold in the axis limit override switch & jog it in the minus direction at the same time, then release the switch & try to home it?

Thanks, I will give that a go tomorrow when I get to my workshop.
Do you know if it is possible to move the table manually?

You should be able to get to the Y axis motor pulley if you remove the rear cover.

Re: Fanuc Triac Overtravel Alarm
Axis override switch didnt work,
I took the back cover off... and found the Y axis motor, I moved the table back into the centre of travel by using a 10mm spanner on the belt pulley nut... Thanks for your help!
