New ATC Fault
My triac has stopped tool changing, the carousel drops down and moves to position under spindle then stops, eventually it times out.
I have cleaned all the limit switches with contact cleaner and check that their corresponding diagnostic bits flash when pressed and when toolchanging.
Bit stumped as to why tool carousel won't rotate round when it will manually, anyone got any suggestions?

Re: New ATC Fault
It could be a broken wire.
Try rotating it when it's in i's home position.

Re: New ATC Fault
The tool carousel rotates using the manual button, but not with the M32/M33 codes in mdi or within a program although i am not sure if they ever worked. I know that the [M34] Rotate Carousel Half Turn has never worked.

Re: New ATC Fault
Has anyone got any ideas? This has stumped me and I really need to get some work on the machine...
Re: New ATC Fault
What control is fitted to the Triac?

Re: New ATC Fault
It is a Fanuc OM
Re: New ATC Fault
It may be worth setting diagnostic 453 bit 0 to a 1.
This will set the timers & counters.

Re: New ATC Fault
Just to wrap this up...
There was a break in one of the carousel motor wires, all sorted now. Thanks for the pointers.
