1. TROUBLESHOOTING
This section is intended for use in determining the solution to a known problem. Solutions given are intended
to give the individual servicing the machine a pattern to follow in, first, determining the problems source
and, second, solving the problem.
The troubleshooting tips are organized in this section according to the area of the machine that may be giving
sign of a problem. (Ex.: Out-of round circles in drilling will be found under the heading General Machine
Operation - Accuracy).
If the problem you are experiencing cannot be found under the heading you expect, please try several other
possible headings. If the problem is still not found, contact Haas Automation for further details.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN:
' USE COMMON SENSE

Many problems are easily overcome by correctly evaluating the situation. All machine operations are
composed of a program, tools, and tooling. You must look at all three before blaming one as the fault area.
If a bored hole is chattering because of an overextended boring bar, dont expect the machine to correct the
fault. Dont suspect machine accuracy if the vise bends the part. Dont claim hole mis-positioning if you dont
first center-drill the hole.
' FIND THE PROBLEM FIRST

Many mechanics tear into things before they understand the problem, hoping that it will appear as they go.
We know this from the fact that more than half of all warranty returned parts are in good working order. If
the spindle doesnt turn, remember that the spindle is connected to the spindle motor, which is driven by the
spindle drive, which is connected to the I/O BOARD, which is driven by the MOCON, which is driven by the
processor. The moral here is dont replace the spindle drive if the belt is broken. Find the problem first; dont
just replace the easiest part to get to.
' DONT TINKER WITH THE MACHINE

There are hundreds of parameters, wires, switches, etc., that you can change in this machine. Dont start
randomly changing parts and parameters. Remember, there is a good chance that if you change something,
you will incorrectly install it or break something else in the process. Consider for a moment changing the
processors board. First, you have to download all parameters, remove a dozen connectors, replace the board,
reconnect and reload, and if you make one mistake or bend one tiny pin it WONT WORK. You always need
to consider the risk of accidentally damaging the machine anytime you work on it. It is cheap insurance to
double-check a suspect part before physically changing it. The less work you do on the machine the better.

VIBRATION
Vibration is a subjective evaluation with perceptions varying among individuals, making it difficult to
determine in mild cases if there is an actual problem. In obvious cases, it is a matter of determining the source
which is not easy, since all parts rotate together and sound can be transferred readily. Vibrations also need
to be distinguished from noise such as a bad bearing. We will assume that vibrations would be something
that could be felt by putting your hand on the spindle ring. One crude method of measurement would be to
take an indicator on a magnetic base extended 10 inches between the turret and spindle ring and observe the
reading of the indicator. A reading of more than .001 would indicate excessive vibration. The two common
sources of noise are the spindle and axis drives. Most complaints about vibration, accuracy, and finish can
be attributed to incorrect machining practices such as poor quality or damaged tooling, incorrect speeds or
feeds, or poor fixturing. Before concluding that the machine is not working properly, ensure that good
machining practices are being observed. These symptoms will not occur individually (Ex. A machine with
backlash may vibrate heavily, yielding a bad finish.). Put all of the symptoms together to arrive at an accurate
picture of the problem.
´ Machine vibrates while spindle is on and is not cutting. Sometimes only at

specific RPM.
If the spindle alone causes vibration of the machine this is usually caused by the belt/pulley drive
system or the chuck jaws are not centered correctly.
´ Machine vibrates while jogging the axis with the jog handle.
The HAAS control uses very high gain accelerations curves. This vibration as you jog is simply the
servos quickly trying to follow the handle divisions. If this is a problem, try using a smaller
division on the handle. You will notice the vibration more at individual clicks than when you are
turning the handle faster. This is normal.
´ The machine vibrates excessively in a cut.

This is a tough one to call because machining practices come into play. Generally speaking, the least
rigid element of a cut is the tool because it is the smallest part. In order to eliminate the machine
as the source of the problem, you need to check the spindle and the backlash of the axes as described
in the following sections. Once machining practices have been eliminated as the source of vibration,
observe the machine in both operation and cutting air. Move the axes (individually) without the
spindle turning and then turn the spindle without moving the axes. Isolate whether the vibration
comes from the spindle head or from an axis.
96-8710 5
ACCURACY
Before you complain of an accuracy problem, please make sure you follow these simple dos and donts:
l Ensure that the machine has been sufficiently warmed up before cutting parts. This will eliminate
mispositioning errors caused by thermal growth of the leadscrews (see "Thermal Growth" section).
l Dont use a wiggler test indicator for linear dimensions. They measure in an arc and have sine/cosine
errors over larger distances.
l Dont use magnetic bases as accurate test stops. The high accel/decel of the axis can cause them to
move.
l Dont attach test points to the sheet metal of the spindle head.
l Dont check for accuracy/repeatability using an indicator with a long extension.
l Ensure that test indicators and stops are absolutely rigid and mounted to machined casting surfaces.
l Check a suspected error with another indicator or method for verification.
l Ensure that the indicator is parallel to the axis being checked to avoid tangential reading errors.
l Center drill holes before using jobber length drills if accuracy is questioned.
l Once machining practices have been eliminated as the source of the problem, determine specifically
what the machine is doing wrong.
´ Diameters are out of round

l Check that tooling and machining practices are correct. Bores will be out of round due to tool
deflection much more frequently than due to spindle bearing problems.
´ Diameters are incorrect in X-axis

l Ensure the tool probe is set up correctly (settings, etc.).
l Ensure tool offsets are correct. Note that the coordinate system (FANUC, YASNAC, HAAS) must
be selected before setting tools.
l Ensure Parameter 254, Spindle Center, is set correctly.
l Check for thermal growth of the X-axis leadscrew (see "Thermal Growth" section).
´ Center holes are malformed

l Ensure tooling is tight.
l Check spindle to turret pocket alignment. It may be out of alignment due to a crash or misadjustment.
l Check for thermal growth of the X-axis leadscrew (see "Thermal Growth" section).
´ Part faces are conical

l Wedge may be out of alignment due to a crash.
l Check tooling setup. Turning long, unsupported parts may cause conical part faces.
l Check for thermal growth of the leadscrews (see "Thermal Growth" section).
6 96-8710
´ Bores are tapered

l Check that tooling and machining practices are correct. Bores will be tapered if the tooling is
inappropriate, the speeds and feeds are incorrect, or coolant is not getting to the cutting tool when
required.
l Although it is rare, the spindle may be out of alignment due to a crash.
l Check that the turret face is parallel with x-axis.
´ Outside diameter (O.D.) is tapered

l Check tooling setup. Turning long, unsupported parts can cause a tapered O.D.
l Check tailstock setup. Excessive hold pressure on the tailstock can distort parts.
l Tailstock may not be aligned to spindle center.
l Spindle to Z-axis may be out of alignment (not parallel).
96-8710 7
´ Material left after facing a part

l Ensure tooling is correct.
l Ensure turret is aligned to X-axis travel.
FINISH
´ Machining yields a poor finish.

l Check the condition of the tooling and the spindle.
l Ensure turret is clamped.
l Ensure tooling is tight.
l Check tooling for chatter or lack of rigidity.
l Check the balance of the chuck, part, and fixture.
l Check for backlash.
l Check turret alignment.
8 96-8710
THERMAL GROWTH
A possible source of accuracy and positioning errors is thermal growth of the leadscrews. As the machine
warms up, the leadscrews expand in both linear axes (X and Z), causing accuracy and positioning errors. This
is especially critical in jobs that require high accuracy.
Note: Thermal growth will be more noticeable in the X-axis, since errors will be doubled
when cutting a diameter.
Note: The leadscrew will always expand away from the motor end.
VERIFY THERMAL GROWTH
There are a number of ways to verify the problem. The following procedure will verify thermal growth of the
X-axis leadscrew in a machine that has not been warmed up:
1. Home the machine. In MDI mode, press POSIT and PAGE DOWN to the OPER page.
2. Jog to an offset location. Select the X axis and press the ORIGIN key to zero it.
3. Press the OFSET key, then scroll down to G110 (or any unused offset). Cursor to X and press the PART
ZERO SET key. This will set X0 at this position.
4. Enter a program that will start at the new zero position, rapid a certain distance in the X direction, feed
the final .25 inches slowly, and then repeat the X movement.
5. In order to set up the indicator, run the program in SINGLE BLOCK mode, and stop it when X is at the end
of it's set travel. Set the magnetic base on the spindle retainer ring or other rigid surface, with the indicator
tip touching the turret in the X-axis, and zero it.
6. Exit SINGLE BLOCK mode, and run the program for a few minutes. Enter SINGLE BLOCK mode again,
stop the program when X is at the end of it's set travel, and take a final reading on the indicator. If the
problem is thermal growth, the indicator will show a difference in the X position.
Note: Ensure the indicator setup is correct as described in "Accuracy" section. Errors in
setup are common, and often incorrectly appear to be thermal growth.
7. A similar program can be written to test for thermal growth in the Z-axis.
SOLUTIONS
Since there are many variables that affect thermal growth, such as the ambient temperature of the shop and
program feed rates, it is difficult to give one solution for all problems.
Thermal growth problems can generally be eliminated by running a warm-up program for approximately 20
minutes before machining parts. The most effective warm-up is to run the current program, at an offset Z
position before the part. This will allow the leadscrews to warm up to the correct temperature and stabilize.
Once the machine is at temperature, the leadscrews won't expand any further, unless they're allowed to cool
down. A warm-up program should be run after each time the machine is left idle.
96-8710 9
1.2 SPINDLE
NOT TURNING
´ Spindle not turning.

l If there are any alarms, see "Alarms" section.
l Check that the spindle turns freely when machine is off.
Ø If spindle drive does not light the RUN LED, check forward/reverse commands from IOPCB.
Ø Check that the drawtube piston is not bound against the spindle shaft on air cylinder style.
l Check the wiring of analog speed command from MOTIF PCB to spindle drive (cable 720).
l If spindle is still not turning, replace MOTIF PCB.
l Disconnect the drive belt. If the spindle will not turn, it is seized and must be replaced.
Note: Before using the replacement spindle, the cause of the previous failure must be
determined.
NOISE
Most noises attributed to the spindle actually lie in the motor or drive belt of the machine. Isolate the
sources of noise as follows:
´ Excessive noise coming from the spindle head area.

l Remove the left end covers and check the machines drive belt tension.
l Run the motor with the drive belt disconnected. If the noise persists, the problem lies with the motor.
If it disappears, go on to the next step.
l Check for the correct amount of lubrication to the spindle bearings (1cc per hour) in an air mist
lubricated spindle.
10 96-8710
1.3 TRANSMISSION (SL-30 AND SL40)
The transmission cannot be serviced in the field and must be replaced as a unit. Never remove the motor from
the transmission, as this will damage the transmission and void the warranty.
NOISE
´ Excessive or unusual noise coming from transmission.

Operate the machine in both high and low gears. Monitor for noise in both gear positions, and
determine if the noise varies with the motor or output shaft speed.
l If the noise only occurs in one gear throughout the entire RPM range of that gear position, the
problem lies with the transmission, and it must be replaced.
l If the noise occurs in both gear positions, disconnect the drive belts (see "Transmission" section,
Mech. Service) and repeat the previous step. If the noise persists, the transmission is damaged and
must be replaced.
l Disconnect the drive belts (see "Transmission" section, Mech. Service) and run the machine in high
gear. Command a change of direction and listen for a banging noise in the transmission as the
machine slows down to zero RPM and speeds back up in reverse. If the noise occurs, the motor has
failed and the transmission must be replaced.
GEARS WILL NOT CHANGE
´ Machine will not execute a gear change.
l Check the voltage to the gear shifter motor. The voltage between pins 2 and 3 should be approximately
+28V when high gear is commanded and -28V when low gear is commanded. If these voltages are
correct, the gear shifter motor has failed and the transmission must be replaced. If these voltages
are incorrect, the cabling or transmission power supply is at fault.
INCORRECT GEAR SELECTED OR SENSED
´ Spindle speed is not consistent with selected gear.
l Monitor the discrete inputs and outputs SP HIG and SP LOW on the Diagnostics display while
commanding high and low gear. The output SP HIG should be 1 when high gear is selected, and SP
LOW should be 1 when low gear is selected. The inputs SP HIG and SP LOW should be 0 when that
gear is engaged, and should both be 1 when the transmission is between gears. These inputs should
never read 0 at the same time.
If any of these inputs/outputs are incorrect, either the gear change limit switches or the wiring to
the I/O PCB is at fault. The limit switches are located inside the transmission, and cannot be
replaced.
96-8710 11
1.4 SERVO MOTORS / LEADSCREWS
NOT OPERATING
All problems that are caused by servo motor failures should also register an alarm. Check the alarm history
to determine the problems cause before any action is taken.
´ Servo motor is not functioning.

l Check the power cable from rear electrical cabinet to ensure connection is tight.
l Encoder is faulty or contaminated (Alarms 139-142, 153-156, 165-168, 182-185). Replace motor
assembly on brusless machines, replace the encoder on brush machines.
l Open circuit in motor (Alarms 139-142, 153-156, 182-185).
l Motor has overheated, resulting in damage to the interior components (Alarms 135-138, 176).
l Wiring is broken, shorted, or missing shield (Alarms 153-156, 175, 182-185).
l Motor has overheated; no damage to the interior components. OVERHEAT alarm has been
triggered. After thorough check of motor (DO NOT DISASSEMBLE!), take necessary steps to
eliminate the problem and alarm to resume operation. If motor is still inoperable, replace motor
assembly.
l Check for broken or loose coupling between the servo motor and the lead screw.
l Check for a damaged lead screw.
Note: If a lead screw fails, it is most often due to a failed bearing sleeve.
NOISE
Lead screw noise is usually caused by a lack of lubrication and is usually accompanied by heating.
Other causes are misalignment, bearing sleeve damage, or ball nut damage. Check the alarm history
of the machine and look for axis overcurrent and following error alarms.
Note: Do not replace lead screws or bearing sleeves without due consideration; they are
extremely durable and reliable. Verify that customer complaints are not due to tooling,
programming, or fixturing problems.
´ Servo motor noise.

l Noise is caused by bearings. Rolling, grinding sound is heard coming from the motor.
l If motor noise is caused by motor bearings, replace motor.
´ Lead screw noise.

l Ensure oil is getting to the lead screw through the lubrication system.
l Check for damage to the bearing sleeve.
l Disconnect the servo motor from the lead screw and rotate the lead screw by hand. If the noise
persists, the lead screw may need replacing.
l Run the axis back and forth. The motor will get very hot if the bearing sleeve is damaged. If so,
turn the axis by hand and feel for roughness in the lead screw. Loosen the clamp nuts at both
ends of the lead screw. If the symptom disappears, replace the bearing sleeve. Be certain to
check for damage to the lead screw shaft where the bearing sleeve is mounted.
Ø If the noise persists, the lead screw is damaged and must be replaced. When replacing the
lead screw in an older machine, always replace the bearing sleeve with the current angular
contact design bearing sleeve.
l Check the lead screw for misalignment.
12 96-8710
Misalignment in the lead screw itself will tend to cause the lead screw to tighten up and make excessive noise
at both ends of the travel. The ballnut may get hot. Misalignment radially at the yoke where the lead screw
ball nut mounts is indicated by heating up of the ball nut on the lead screw, and noise and tightness
throughout the travel of the lead screw. Misalignment at the yoke where the ball nut mounts is indicated by
noise and tightness at both ends of the travel of the lead screw. The ball nut may get hot.
ACCURACY / BACKLASH
Accuracy complaints are usually related to tooling, programming, or fixturing problems. Eliminate these
possibilities before working on the machine.
´ Poor Z-axis accuracy.

l Check for a loose encoder on the servo motor. Also, ensure the key in the motor or the lead screw is in
place and the coupling is tight (Brush motors only).
l Check parameters for that axis.
l Check for backlash in the lead screw as outlined below.
Initial Preparation-
Turn the lathe ON. ZERO RET the machine and move the carriage to the approximate center of its travel in
the Z-axis. Move the turret to the approximate center of the X-axis travel.
X-AXIS:
1. Place a dial indicator and base on the spindle retaining ring with the tip of the indicator positioned on
the outside diameter of the turret, as shown in Fig. 1-1.
Fig. 1-1. Dial indicator in position to check X-axis.
2. Set dial indicator and the Distance to go display in the HANDLE JOG mode to zero as follows:
l Zero the dial indicator.
l Press the MDI button on the control panel.
l Press the HANDLE JOG button on the control panel.
The Distance to go display on the lower right hand corner should read: X=0 Z=0
3. Set the rate of travel to .001 on the control panel and jog the machine .010 in the positive (+) X
direction. Jog back to zero (0) on the display. The dial indicator should read zero (0) ± .0001.
96-8710 13
4. Repeat Step 3 in the negative (-) direction.
TOTAL DEVIATION BETWEEN THE DIAL INDICATOR AND THE CONTROL PANEL DISPLAY SHOULD NOT EXCEED
.0002.
An alternate method for checking backlash is to place the dial indicator as shown in Fig. 4-1 and manually
push on the turret in both directions. The dial indicator should return to zero after releasing the turret.
Note: The servos must be on to check backlash by this method.
Z-AXIS:
1. Place a dial indicator and base on the spindle retaining ring with the indicator tip positioned on the face
of the turret as shown in Fig. 1-2.
Fig. 1-2 Dial indicator in position to check Z-axis.
2. Set dial indicator and the Distance to go display in the HANDLE JOG mode to zero as follows:
l Zero the dial indicator.
l Press the MDI button on the control panel.
l Press the HANDLE JOG button on the control panel. The Distance to go display on the lower
right hand corner should read: X=0 , Z=0
3. Set the rate of travel to .001 on the control panel and jog the machine .010 in the positive (+) Z
direction. Jog back to zero (0) on the display. The dial indicator should read zero (0) ± .0001.
4. Repeat Step 3 in the negative (-) direction.
TOTAL DEVIATION BETWEEN THE DIAL INDICATOR AND THE CONTROL PANEL DISPLAY SHOULD
NOT EXCEED .0002.
An alternate method for checking backlash is to place the dial indicator as shown in Fig. 4-2 and
manually push on the turret in both directions. The dial indicator should return to zero after releasing
the turret.
Note: The servos must be on to check backlash by this method.
14 96-8710
VIBRATION
´ Excessive servo motor vibration.

l Check all Parameters of the suspected axis against the Parameters as shipped with the machine. If
there are any differences, correct those and determine how the Parameters were changed.
PARAMETER LOCK should normally be on.
l A bad motor can cause vibration if there is an open or short in the motor. A short would normally cause
a GROUND FAULT or OVERCURRENT alarm; check the ALARMS. An ohmmeter applied to the motor leads
should show between 1 and 3 ohms between leads, and over 1 megohm from leads to chassis.
OVERHEATING
´ Servo motor overheating.

l If a motor OVERHEAT alarm occurs (ALARMS 135-138), check the Parameters for an incorrect setting.
Axis flags in Parameters 1, 15, or 29 can invert the overheat switch (OVER TEMP NC).
l If the motor is actually getting hot to the touch, there is excessive load on the motor. Check the users
application for excessive load or high duty cycle. Check the lead screw for binding.
SERVO ERROR
´ "Servo Error Too Large" alarms occur on one or more axes sporadically.
l Check motor wiring for shorts.
l Driver card may need replacement.
l Servo motor may need replacement.
l Check for binding in motion of lead screw.
1.5 HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
HYDRAULIC PRESSURE
´ "Low hydraulic pressure" alarm (134).

l Check for any leaks.
l Check that the oil level is above the black line.
l Check that the oil pressure is within 50-500 psi. If the hydraulic unit needs to be replaced,
see "Hydraulic Unit Removal/Installation" section.
l Check that the temperature is less than 150 degrees. If the hydraulic unit needs to be replaced,
see "Hydraulic Unit Removal/Installation" section.
l Phasing changes cause the hydraulic unit to change directions resulting in alarm 134.
HYDRAULIC CHUCK
´ Chuck won't clamp/unclamp.

l Check for alarm condition.
l Check display for "Low Hydraulic Pressure" alarm (134).
l Check that the oil pressure gauge is within 50-500 psi.
l Use a voltage meter to check the solenoid circuit breaker.
Ø Replace solenoid valve if faulty.
96-8710 15
NOISE IN HYDRAULIC POWER UNIT
´ Hydraulic power unit noise.
Note: Noise in hydraulic unit should decrease a few minutes after start up.
l Check for leaks in hose.

l Check that the oil level is above the black line.
l Check for loose pieces/hardware.
l Check for debris in motor/cooling fins.
HYDRAULIC TAILSTOCK
´ Tailstock pulsates as it moves.

l Check operating pressure. (Minimum operating pressure is 120 psi)
l Check for leaks at hydraulic cylinder.
l Check for leaks at hose fittings.
1.6 ELECTRICAL TROUBLESHOOTING
CAUTION! Before working on any electrical components, power off the machine and wait
approximately 10 minutes. This will allow the high voltage power on the brushless amplifiers
to be discharged.
ELECTRICAL ALARMS
´ Axis Drive Fault Alarm

l Blown amplifier - indicated by a light at bottom of amplifier when power is on. Replace amplifier.
l Amplifier or MOCON is noise sensitive. If this is the case, the alarm can be cleared and the axis will
run normally for a while.
To check an amplifier, switch the motor leads and control cables between the amplifier and the one
next to it. If the same problem occurs with the other axis, the amplifier must be replaced. If the
problem stays on the same axis, either the MOCON or control cable. The problem could also be the
axis motor itself, with leads either shorted to each other or to ground, which is very rare.
l Amplifier faulting out for valid reason, such as overtemp, overvoltage, or +/-12 volt undervoltage
condition. This usually results from running a servo intensive program, or unadjusted 12 volt power
supply. Replace amplifier.
Overvoltage could occur if regen load is not coming on, but this does not usually happen. The
problem could also be the axis motor itself, with leads either shorted to each other or to ground,
which is very rare.
´ Axis Overload
l The fuse function built into the MOCON has been overloaded, due to a lot of motor accel/decels, or
hitting a hard stop with the axis. This safety function protects the amplifier and motor, so find the
cause and correct it. If the current program is the cause, change the program. If the axis hits a hard
stop, the travel limits may be set wrong.
16 96-8710
´ Phasing Error
l The MOCON did not receive the proper phasing information from the motors. DO NOT RESET the
machine if this alarm occurs. Power the machine down and back up. If the problem persists, it is
probably a broken wire or faulty MOCON connectors.
´ Servo Error Too Large

l This alarm occurs when the difference between the commanded axis position and the actual position
becomes larger the the maximum that is set in the parameter.
This condition occurs when the amplifier is blown, is not receiving the commands, or the 320 volt
power source is dead. If the MOCON is not sending the correct commands to the amplifier, it is
probably due to a broken wire, or a PHASING ERROR that was generated.
´ Axis Z Fault or Z Channel Missing

l During a self-test, the number of encoder counts was found to be incorrect. This is usually caused
by a noisy environment, and not a bad encoder. Check all shields and grounds on the encoder cables
and the motor leads that come into the amplifiers. An alarm for one axis can be caused by a bad
grounding on the motor leads of another axis.
´ Axis Cable Fault

l During a self-test, the encoder cable signals were found to be invalid. This alarm is usually caused
by a bad cable, or a bad connection on the motor encoder connectors. Check the cable for any
breaks, and the encoder connectors at the motor controller board. Machine noise can also cause
this alarm, although it is less common.
´ Alarm 101, "MOCON Comm. Failure"

NOTE: Keypad Diodes 1-24 correspond to chart numbers 1-24
Example: 1. Pressing the RESET button will cause diodes 1 and 17 to conduct.
l With the POWER OFF read across diode 1.
l A typical reading is between .400-.700 ohms, note your reading.
2. Press and hold the RESET button. If the diode is conducting, the reading should drop about
.03 ohms.
l If your reading was .486 and it dropped to .460 for a difference of .026; the
diode is good.
l The same will hold true for diode 17 in this example. If the reading stays the
same or there is no change, the diode is not conducting. Pull P2 and read
between pins 1 and 17.
l Press and hold <RESET>. The meter should read a short (0 ohms); if not, the
keypad is bad.

2. ALARMS
Any time an alarm is present, the lower right hand corner of the screen will have a blinking "ALARM". Push the ALARM
display key to view the current alarm. All alarms are displayed with a reference number and a complete description.
If the RESET key is pressed, one alarm will be removed from the list of alarms. If there are more than 18 alarms, only
the last 18 are displayed and the RESET must be used to see the rest. The presence of any alarm will prevent the
operator from starting a program.
The ALARMS DISPLAY can be selected at any time by pressing the ALARM MESGS button. When there are no alarms,
the display will show NO ALARM. If there are any alarms, they will be listed with the most recent alarm at the bottom
of the list. The CURSOR and PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN buttons can be used to move through a large number of alarms.
The CURSOR right and left buttons can be used to turn on and off the ALARM history display.
Note that tool changer alarms can be easily corrected by first correcting any mechanical problem, pressing RESET
until the alarms are clear, selecting ZERO RET mode, and selecting AUTO ALL AXES. Some messages are displayed
while editing to tell the operator what is wrong but these are not alarms. See the editing topic for those errors.
The following alarm list shows the alarm numbers, the text displayed along with the alarm, and a detailed description
of the alarm, what can cause it, when it can happen, and how to correct it.
Alarm number and text: Possible causes:
101 MOCON Comm. Failure During a self-test of communications between the MOCON and main
processor, the main processor does not respond, and is suspected to be
dead. Check cable connections and grounding.
102 Servos Off Indicates that the servo motors are off, the tool changer is disabled, the
coolant pump is off, and the spindle motor is stopped. Caused by EMER
GENCY STOP, motor faults, tool changer problems, or power fail.
103 X Servo Error Too much load or speed on X-axis motor. The difference between the
Too Large motor position and the commanded position has exceeded a parameter.
The motor may also be stalled, disconnected, or the driver failed. The
servos will be turned off and a RESET must be done to restart. This alarm
can be caused by problems with the driver, motor, or the slide being run
into the mechanical stops.
104 Y Servo Error Same as alarm 103.

Too Large
105 Z Servo Error Same as alarm 103.
Too Large
106 A Servo Error Same as alarm 103.
Too Large
107 Emergency Off EMERGENCY STOP button was pressed. Servos are also turned off.
After the E-STOP is released, the RESET button must be pressed at
least twice to correct this; once to clear the E-STOP alarm and once to
clear the Servos Off alarm.
108 X Servo Overload Excessive load on X-axis motor. This can occur if the load on the motor
over a period of several seconds or even minutes is large enough to
exceed the continuous rating of the motor. The servos will be turned off
when this occurs. This can be caused by running into the mechanical
stops but not much past them. It can also be caused by anything
that causes a very high load on the motors.
96-8710 21
ALARMS January 1999
109 Y Servo Overload Same as alarm 108.

110 Z Servo Overload Same as alarm 108.
111 A Servo Overload Same as alarm 108.
112 No Interrupt Electronics fault. Call your dealer.
113 Turret Unlock Fault The turret took longer to unlock and come to rotation position than allowed
for in Parameter 62. The value in Parameter 62 is in milliseconds. This may
occur if the air pressure is too low, the tool turret clamp switch is faulty or
needs adjustment, or there is a mechanical problem.
114 Turret Lock Fault The turret took longer to lock and seat than allowed for in Parameter 63.
The value in Parameter 63 is in milliseconds. This may occur if the air
pressure is too low, the tool turret clamp switch is faulty or needs adjust
ment, or there is a mechanical problem.
115 Turret Rotate Fault Tool motor not in position. During a tool changer operation the tool turret
failed to start moving or failed to stop at the right position. Parameters 62
and 63 can adjust the time-out times. This alarm can be caused by anything
that jams the rotation of the turret. A loss of power to the tool changer can
also cause this, so check CB5 and relays 1-8, 2-3, and 2-4.
116 Spindle Orientation Fault Spindle did not orient correctly. During a spindle orientation function, the
spindle is rotated until the lock pin drops in; but the lock pin never dropped.
Parameters 66, 70, 73, and 74 can adjust the time-out times. This can be
caused by a trip of circuit breaker CB4, a lack of air pressure, or too much
friction with the orientation pin.
117 Spindle High Gear Fault Gearbox did not shift into high gear. During a change to high gear, the high
gear sensor was not detected in time. Parameters 67, 70 and 75 can adjust
the time-out times. Check circuit breaker CB4,the circuit breaker for the air
pressure solenoids , and the spindle drive.
118 Spindle Low Gear Fault Gearbox did not shift into low gear. During a change to low gear, the low
gear sensor was not detected in time. Parameters 67, 70 and 75 can adjust
the time-out times. Check the solenoids circuit breaker CB4, and the spindle
drive.
119 Over Voltage Incoming line voltage is above maximum. The servos will be turned off and
the spindle, tool changer, and coolant pump will stop. If this condition
remains for 4.5 minutes, an automatic shutdown will begin.
120 Low Air Pressure Air pressure dropped below 80 PSI for a period of time defined by
Parameter 76. Check your incoming air pressure for at least 100 PSI and
ensure that the regulator is set at 85 PSI.
121 Low Lub or Way lube is low or empty or there is no lube pressure or too high a pressure.
Low Pressure Check tank at rear of machine and below control cabinet. Also check
connector on the side of the control cabinet. Check that the lube lines are
not blocked.
122 Regen Overheat The control internal temperature is above a safe limit. This can be caused
by almost anything in the control overheating. But is usually caused by
overheat of the two regen resistors for servos and spindle drive. This alarm
will also turn off the servos, spindle drive, coolant pump, and tool changer.
22 96-8710
January 1999 ALARMS
One common cause of this overheat condition is an input line voltage too
high. If this condition remains for 4.5 minutes, an automatic shutdown will
begin.
123 Spindle Drive Fault Overheat or failure of spindle drive or motor. The exact cause is indicated
in the LED window of the spindle drive inside the control cabinet. This can
be caused by a stalled motor, shorted motor, overvoltage, undervoltage,
overcurrent, overheat of motor, or drive failure.
124 Low Battery Memory batteries need replacing within 30 days. This alarm is only
generated at power on and indicates that the 3.3 volt Lithium battery is
below 2.5 volts. If this is not corrected within about 30 days, you may lose
your stored programs, parameters, offsets, and settings.
125 Tool Turret Fault Turret has not seated itself properly. There may be something obstructing
the turret between the housing and the turret itself.
126 Gear Fault Gearshifter is out of position when a command is given to rotate the spindle.
This means that the two speed gear box is not in either high or low gear but
is somewhere in between. Check the air pressure, the solenoids circuit
breaker CB4, and the spindle drive.
127 Door Fault The control failed to detect a high signal at the Automatic DOOR input after
an M85 was commanded and the Automatic DOOR input was not received
before a certain period of time. The units are in milliseconds.
129 M Fin Fault M-Fin was active at power on. Check the wiring to your M code interfaces.
This test is only performed at power-on.
130 Chuck Unclamped The control detected that the chuck is unclamped. This is a possible fault
in the air solenoids, relays on the I/O Assembly, or wiring.
132 Power Down Failure Machine did not turn off when an automatic power-down was commanded.
Check wiring to POWIF card on power supply assembly, relays on the IO
assembly, and the main contactor K1.
133 Spindle Locked Shot pin did not release. This is detected when spindle motion is com
manded. Check the solenoid that controls the air to the lock, relay 2-8, the
wiring to the sense switch, and the switch.
134 Low Hydraulic Hydraulic pressure is sensed to be low. Check pump pressure and
Pressure hydraulic tank oil level.
135 X Motor Over Heat Servo motor overheat. The temperature sensor in the motor indicates
over 150 degrees F. This can be caused by an extended overload of the
motor such as leaving the slide at the stops for several minutes.
136 Y Motor Over Heat Same as alarm 135.

137 Z Motor Over Heat Same as alarm 135.
138 A Motor Over Heat Same as alarm 135.
139 X Motor Z Fault Encoder marker pulse count failure. This alarm usually indicates that the
encoder has been damaged and encoder position data is unreliable. This
can also be caused by loose connectors at P1-P4.

145 X Limit Switch Axis hit limit switch or switch disconnected. This is not normally possible
as the stored stroke limits will stop the slides before they hit the limit
switches. Check the wiring to the limit switches and connector P5 at the
side of the main cabinet. Can also be caused by a loose encoder shaft at
the back of the motor or coupling of motor to the screw.
146 Y Limit Switch Same as alarm 145.

147 Z Limit Switch Same as alarm 145.
148 A Limit Switch Normally disabled for rotary axis.

panel membrane keypad. Call your dealer.
159 Keyboard Failure Keyboard shorted or button pressed at power on. A power-on test of the
membrane keypad has found a shorted button. It can also be caused by
a short in the cable from the main cabinet or by holding a switch down

160 Low Voltage The line voltage to control is too low. This alarm occurs when the AC
line voltage drops below 190 when wired for 230 volts or drops below
165 when wired for 208 volts.
161 X-Axis Drive Fault Current in X servo motor beyond limit. Possibly caused by a stalled or
overloaded motor. The servos are turned off. This can be caused by running
a short distance into a mechanical stop. It can also be caused by a short in
the motor or a short of one motor lead to ground.

TURRET REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT
REMOVAL
1. Remove the sliding tool changer and turret assembly covers.
2. Change Parameter 76 from 500 to 50000 ( so you will not trip on a low air pressure alarm).
3. Remove the air line.
4. Put a 3/4 " wrench on the bolt at the end of the air cycle. Pull down (-X) until the turret is fully unclamped.
5. Place a block snugly between the back of the turret shaft and the casting to keep the turret shaft from
shifting.
Caution: If the shaft moves back when the turret is disconnected the ball bearings in the turret
cam will fall and have to be replaced before the turret can be reassembled.
6. Empty the oil from the turret assembly. Remove the screw from the bottom of the plate located just behind
the turret on the turret assembly and allow the oil to drain into a bucket.
7. Remove the four bolts from the turret retainer and remove the retainer.
Note: If a shaft extension is available install it at this time. Using the extension gives you
greater movement of the turret and allows you to remove and easily install the key,
washers and needle bearings
Caution: The turret is heavy and could be slippery. Be careful to not lose the key as it will be
facing down at this point.
8. Remove the turret from the shaft.
9. The two washers, needle bearing, and key should be removed from the shaft and put aside at this time.
INSTALLATION
1. Put a small amount of grease on one side of the washers.
2. Place the washer on the surface of the turret and center it using your fingers. Be sure to keep grease off
the surface facing the needle bearing.
3. Put a small amount of grease on both sides of the second washer.
40 96-8710
4. Place the washer on the spring retainer on the lip of the turret shaft. Clean any grease that may have gotten
on the shaft.
5. Place the needle bearing on the lip and stick it to the washer. Be sure the other surface of the bearing is
clean and free of grease.
6. Put a small amount of grease on the turret key to hold it in place.
7. Place the turret on the shaft. (align the turret key)
Note: Check that the turret key did not fall off.
Check that the washer is centered on the turret.
Check that the washer and needle bearing are still on the shaft lip.
8. Slide the turret fully on the shaft.
9. Replace the turret retainer and snug the four bolts.
Note: Check the turret "O" ring. If you can see either the washer or the needle bearing
they have slid off the shaft. Return to step 7 of the turret removal section.
10. Tighten the four turret retainer bolts.
11. Replace the screw in the bottom of the plate located just behind the turret on the turret assembly.
12. Pour the oil back in the turret assembly.
13. Remove the brace from between the turret shaft and the casing.
14. Connect the air. The turret should clamp.
15. Change Parameter 76 back to 500.
16. Replace the turret assembly and sliding tool change covers.
17. Exercise the tool changer to verify proper operation.
TURRET MOTOR COUPLING ADJUSTMENT
Note: The turret must be at tool #1 and clamped to perform this procedure.
1. Remove the sliding tool changer cover.
2. Go to Setting 7 and turn off the Parameter Lock.
3. Go to Parameter 43 and change Z CH ONLY to 1.
4. Loosen the turret motor coupling clamp screw closest to the motor. (Refer to Figure 3-1)
5. Press the ZERO RET key, then the A key, and the ZERO SINGL AXIS key. This will cause the motor to
go to the first encoder Z pulse.
6. With the servos on, move the turret motor coupling back and forth to find the center of its backlash, and
tighten the clamp screw as close to the center of the backlash as possible.
96-8710 41
Note: If it is tight (no backlash) it will be necessary to force it in one direction or the other
until it pops into its backlash area. If it gets tighter when it is turned, STOP; this is the
wrong direction.
7. Change Parameter 43, Z CH ONLY back to 0 (zero).
8. Press the ZERO RET key, A key, and ZERO SINGL AXIS key. This will home the turret at tool #1.
9. Press the EMERGENCY STOP button and turn the turret motor coupling back and forth to verify that the
backlash is centered.
10. Go to Setting 7 and turn on the Parameter Lock.

TURRET IN / OUT ADJUSTMENT
Note: Alarms 113 and 114, "Turret Unlock Fault" and "Turret Lock Fault", can indicate
that a turret in/out adjustment is necessary. These alarms occur when the Turret Clamp
and Unclamp switches sense a turret positioning error.
1. Before hooking the cylinder end to the lever cam, manually insure that the Turret is in its furthest clamped
position.
2. Screw the cylinder rod end in so that the lever cam mounting hole aligns with the rod end attachment.
3. Start the mounting bolt with the spacer through the cylinder rod end and into lever cam, then tighten.
4. If the turret travel is not .150", ensure there is no mechanical problem or obstruction affecting the travel.
If no problem is found, the air cylinder rod travel needs to be adjusted. To make this adjustment, loosen
the two jam nuts, and screw the extension sleeve away from the air cylinder to increase the
turret travel, or towards the air cylinder to decrease the turret travel. When adjustment is
complete, tighten the jam nuts to the extension sleeve.
5. Once the turret travel is set, the Clamp/Unclamp switches must be adjusted. Enter the diagnostic data page
in order to monitor the TT UNL (Turret Unlocked) and TT LOK (Turret Locked) discrete inputs.

SPINDLE HEAD ALIGNMENT
Tools Required:
3 (1) Dual Indicator Stand
Depending on lathe model, the following sheet metal pieces may need to be removed:
a. The front left panel
b. The front bottom panel
c. The drain rail
d. The front door
1. Loosen all spindle head mounting bolts.
2. Loosen the locknuts on the two jack screws (adjustment bolts) underneath the spindle head casting.
3. Bolt spindle alignment bar tool to spindle and attach a 0.0001" indicator onto the face of the turret.
4. Jog indicator such that the indicator runs tangent to alignment bar along the Z-axis.
5. Level the spindle head assembly by adjusting the jack screws up or down and jogging the indicator along
the alignment bar in the Z-axis. The tolerance reading should be .0001" within 10".
Figure 3-11. Adjustment bolts.
96-8710 57
6. Once the spindle head assembly is level, setup dual indicators on the large magnetic base and place on
the base casting to the rear. Indicate them at the machined bosses to maintain the spindle head
level. See Figure 3-12.
Figure 3-12. Indicator setup.
Note 1: This setup is to ensure the spindle remains parallel in the Z-axis plane while
raising the spindlehead. It is recommended to only turn the jackscrews a quarter turn
each time so that the spindle head does not become positioned too high above the
turret pocket. Should this happen, you will have to start the procedure again.
Note 2: If the boss on the spindle head casting is not machined, then an alternate
method to set up the indicators is to retract the B-axis waycover from the left side and
mount the mag base to the base casting. Then position two indicators on the machined
surface beneath the spindle head casting.
7. Place the tenths indicator at the end of the spindle alignment bar and jog tool turret in the Z- axis towards
the spindle until the indicator rest on the inside of the tool pocket.
8. Align the tool pocket holder along the X-axis with the spindle alignment bar by rotating the spindle and
sweeping the indicator 180 o along the axis. Refer to Figure 3-3.
9. Jog the turret along the X-axis until a measurement reading within .001" is indicated.
Note 3: Use the jog handle in tenths mode to zero pocket
10. Next, zero the spindle alignment at the top and bottom of the turret pocket by sweeping the indicator
at those positions and adjusting the jack screws equally. See Notes 1 and 2.
11. Rotate the spindle 180 o and adjust the jackscrews until the indicator reads within a .001" at the top and
bottom of pocket. Repeat Steps 8 and 9, to ensure the X-axis is zeroed for each adjustment in the vertical
direction.
12. Torque the spindle head mounting bolts to 500 ft-lbs carefully so as not to change the spindles position.
13. Once the pocket is zero, X-axis value on the screen becomes the new machine spindle centerline.
14. Tighten the jam nuts on the jack screws under the spindle head.
58 96-8710
Note 4: The x-axis value in the Positions page is the new machine centerline. This
value should be stored in Parameter 254.
15. Repeat Steps 3-5 to ensure that the shaft has remained horizontal. If the shaft has moved, return to Step
11 and recheck the pocket position.
16. Test the other pockets in the same way as pocket #1 (Step 11) without moving the x-axis position. The
tolerances for the other pockets are 0.003 inch from the centerline.
17. Reinstall the following sheet metal pieces if removed:
a. The front left panel

b. The front bottom panel
c. The drain rail
d. The front door
Note 5: All alignments done could change spindle centerline. Verify and enter new
spindle centerline position in Parameter 254. (Refer to Section 1.9)
3.3 TAILSTOCK ALIGNMENT
Tailstock alignment procedures should only be done after the X and Z axes have been checked for proper
alignment.
There are two different tailstocks, a one-piece original design and the newer two-piece design. If the tailstock
needs to be aligned, follow the procedure for that type of tailstock
ONE- PIECE TAILSTOCK ALIGNMENT VERIFICATION
Tools Required:
ü Spindle Alignment Test Bar (P/N# T-1312) ü Tailstock Taper Bar (P/N# T-1416)
ü .0001" Indicator and Magnetic Base
1. Mount the spindle alignment test bar to the spindle.
Note: Make sure all contact surfaces, including the test bar, are clean.
2. Mount a tenths indicator to the end of the test bar.
3. Insert the tailstock taper alignment test bar.
4. Place the indicator tip at the base of the tailstock test bar (closest to the tailstock). Check the total
runout at base of the test bar by rotating the indicat 360 0. Max. tolerance is .001" from centerline.
- If this measurement is out of tolerance from top to bottom (900 and 2700), then proceed to
the Tailstock Leveling Procedure.
- If this measurement is out of tolerance from side to side (0 0 and 1800), then the insert
needs to be replaced and realigned as described in the Tailstock Insert Removal and
Installation section.
5. Jog the tailstock back and measure the runout at the end of the tailstock test bar.
96-8710 59
TAILSTOCK LEVELING PROCEDURE
This procedure should only be performed after the tailstock In/Out has been checked.
Tools Required:
ü (2) Tenths Indicator ü (1) Tailstock Alignment Tool (Test Bar P/N# T-1416)
ü (1) Tailstock Leveling Assembly (Leveling Stand P/N# 93-6001)
ü (1) Round Rigid Bar (1", diameter min.)
1. Carefully remove the center from tailstock (TS) and thoroughly inspect the tapered insert for damage or
debris. Clean tapered insert and firmly install Test Bar.
2. Loosen the mounting bolts that attach the TS to the linear guide trucks, allowing TS to rest on bolts.
Place the Leveling Stand under the bottom edge of TS and manually raise the jack bolts. (Refer to Figure
3-13)
3. Attach a tenths indicator to the face of the turret. Level the TS by jogging the indicator along the test
bar in the Z-axis and level to within .0005" by adjusting the jack bolts.
4. Clamp the rigid bar into the chuck or collet and mount the tenths indicator at the end. Sweep the diameter
of the Test Bar and note the vertical runout. Refer to Figure 3-13.
Figure 3-13. Tailstock leveling indicator setup.
5. Raise the TS and bring up to center by equally turning the jack bolts ( do not turn one jack bolt more than
1/4 turn without turning the other). Adjust to within .0003" and lightly snug bolts during procedure.
Note: Check tailstock parallelism each time the tailstock is raised.
6. Check for TS level change. Adjust by setting the indicator to zero at the right end of the Test Bar and
jog the indicator over to left end of bar. Snug bolts in upper left corner and loosen the others. Adjust
the right-hand jack bolt only and bring the indicator to within .0005".
60 96-8710
7. Once the TS is leveled, the mounting bolts should be torqued to 50 ft-lbs in a clockwise fashion (first, the
inner mounting bolts than the outside). If the horizontal runout is unacceptable, the tapered insert may
have to be reset as described in the following section
Note: These steps may have to be repeated to achieve proper alignment.
TWO-PIECE TAILSTOCK ALIGNMENT
1. Using a spindle alignment tool and a Morse taper tool, indicate from spindle to tailstock. Measure flatness
and TIR (total indicated run-out). Determine which direction the tailstock is out of alignment (Figure 3-14).
Figure 3-14
2. If the tailstock is out of alignment in both flatness and parallelism, remove the head from the tailstock base.
Mark the shims so they can be installed in the same order, and inspect them. If the tailstock is only out of
parallel alignment go to step 6.
3. Check the top surface of the tailstock base for parallelism to the Z axis. Check for dents and lightly stone
the top mating surface of the tailstock. Indicate from the turret to the top of the tailstock base. Readings must
be no more than +/- .004" for 10 inches of travel.
4. Install the shims, lightly stone and clean the shims before installing
5. Install the head of the tailstock and snug the four retaining nuts.
6. Rotate the spindle and measure parallelism. Tap the head into place using a mallet. If flatness is within
tolerance, proceed to step 8.
7. Measure flatness from base to end of tailstock. Add or remove shims if necessary using the tailstock head
alignment tool. To adjust the number of shims, bolt on alignment tool, snug alignment bolts against the
tailstock head, then remove the tool (Figure 3-15). Loosen either the front or rear pair of tailstock retaining
nuts and add or remove shims as necessary. This will keep parallelism. Re-tighten the nuts. If necessary
loosen the other end to add or remove shims as well. To re-align, install the alignment tool and position the
tailstock against the adjustment bolts of the alignment tool. Snug the tailstock nuts and remove the tool.
96-8710 61

3.5 GRID OFFSET CALCULATION
Please read this section in its entirety before attempting to set the grid offset.
GUIDELINES -
The encoder Z channel signal must occur between 1/8 and 7/8 revolution from where the home switch is
released. If DISTANCE TO GO is less than 1/8 (.0295) or greater than 7/8 (.2065) of a revolution, it will alarm
to Zero Return Margin Too Small.
In ZERO RETURN mode, the DISTANCE TO GO is the amount the encoder rotated from when the switch was
released until it found the Z channel signal. The ideal amount for the DISTANCE TO GO are; X-axis =.236,
Z-axis=.118, B-axis = .050 (This equals ½ of a revolution of the encoder).
SETTING THE OFFSET -

1. Set the grid offset to zero. (Parameter 125, 127, 129, depending on the axis being set.) Setting #7
(PARAMETER LOCK) must be OFF to reset grid offset.
2. Press ZERO RET and ZERO SINGL AXIS the axis you are setting (X, Z, or A).
3. Calculate the grid offset using the following formula, and write the result in Parameter 125, 127, or 128
(depending on the axis being set).
(DISTANCE TO GO - .236) x Ratio = Grid Offset
The Ratio (steps/unit) for the X, Z, and A axes are the values in Parameters 5, 33, and 47, respectively.
4. ZERO RET the axis again to use this offset.
Note: If X-axis grid offset is reset, Parameter 254 should be checked and adjusted
accordingly.

4.2. LINE VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENTS
Please read this section in its entirety before attempting to adjust the line voltage.
TOOLS REQUIRED:
ü LARGE FLAT TIP SCREWDRIVER
ü DIGITAL VOLTMETER
ADJUSTING VOLTAGE
Note: The machine must have air pressure at the air gauge or an interlock will prevent it
from powering up.
CAUTION! Working with the electrical services required for the lathe can be extremely
hazardous. The electrical power must be off and steps must be taken to ensure that it will
not be turned on while you are working with it. In most cases this means turning off a circuit
breaker in a panel and then locking the panel door. However, if your connection is different
or you are not sure how to do this, check with the appropriate personnel in your organization
or otherwise obtain the necessary help BEFORE you continue.
WARNING! The electrical panel should be closed and the three screws on the door should
be secured at all times except during installation and service. At those times, only qualified
electricians should have access to the panel. When the main circuit breaker is on, there is
high voltage throughout the electrical panel (including the circuit boards and logic circuits)
and some components operate at high temperatures. Therefore extreme caution is
required.
1. Hook up the three power lines to the terminal on top of the main switch at upper right of electrical panel
and the separate ground line to the ground bus to the left of the terminals. The hydraulic unit is a 3 phase
pump. Refer to the "Hydraulic Unit Phasing" section for proper phasing instructions.
Figure 4-4. Power lines; hookup location.
86 96-8710
Note: Make sure that the service wires actually go into the terminal-block clamps. It is
easy to miss the clamp and tighten the screw. The connection looks fine but the
machine runs intermittently or has other problems, such as servo overloads. To check,
simply pull on the wires after the screws are tightened.
2. After the line voltage is connected to the machine, make sure that main circuit breaker (at top-right of
rear cabinet) is off (rotate the shaft that connects to the breaker counterclockwise until it snaps off).
Turn on the power at the source. Using an accurate digital voltmeter and appropriate safety procedures,
measure the voltage between all three pair phases at the main circuit breaker and write down the
readings. The voltage must be between 195 and 260 volts or 353 and 480 volts, depending on which
transformer is in the machine.
Note: Wide voltage fluctuations are common in many industrial areas; you need to know
the minimum and maximum voltage which will be supplied to the machine while it is in
operation. U.S. National Electrical Code specifies that machines should operate with a
variation of +5% to -5% around an average supply voltage. If problems with the line
voltage occur, or low line voltage is suspected, an external transformer may be required.
If you suspect voltage problems, the voltage should be checked every hour or two during
a typical day to make sure that it does not fluctuate more than +5% or -5% from an
average.
Figure 4-5. Transformer connections.
CAUTION! Make sure that the main breaker is set to OFF and the power is off at your supply
panel BEFORE you change the transformer connections. Make sure that all three black wires
are moved to the correct terminal block and that they are tight.
3. Check the connections on the transformer at the bottom-right corner of the rear cabinet. The three black
wires labeled 74, 75, and 76 must be moved to the terminal block triple which corresponds to the average
voltage measured in step 2 above. There are four positions for the input power to this transformer. The
input voltage range for each terminal block is as follows:

connects to the main breaker. If there are any problems, call the factory.
Figure 4-7. Measure voltage here.
6. Apply power to the control by pressing the Power-On switch on the front panel. Check the high voltage
bus voltage on the Vector Drive (pin 2 with respect to pin 3 on the terminal bus at the bottom of the
drive). It must be between 310 and 360 volts. If the voltage is outside these limits, turn off the power
and recheck steps 2 and 3. If the voltage is still outside these limits, call the factory. Check the DC
voltage displayed in the second page of the Diagnostic data on the CRT. It is labeled DC BUS. Verify
that the displayed voltage matches the voltage measured at pins 2 and 3 of the Vector Drive +/- 7 VDC.
7. Turn off the power (rotate the shaft that engages the handle on the panel door counterclockwise until
it snaps into the off position). Also, set the main switch handle on the panel door to off. (Both the
handle and the switch must be set to off before the door can be closed). Close the door, latch the
latches, and turn the power back on.

5.1 SPINDLE
Spindle speed functions are controlled primarily by the S address code. The S address specifies RPM in integer
values from 1 to maximum spindle speed (Parameter 131). NOT TO BE CHANGED BY USER!
Two M codes, M41 (Low Gear) and M42 (High Gear), can be used for gear selection. Spindle speed accuracy
is best at the higher speeds and in low gear.
The spindle is hardened and ground with a A2-6, A2-8, A2-11 spindle nose.
5.2 TWO-SPEED GEAR TRANSMISSION (SL-30 AND 40)
The spindle head contains a two-speed gear transmission. The spindle motor is directly coupled to the
transmission and the transmission is cog belt-coupled to the spindle pulley. An electric motor drives the
gearbox shifter into high or low gear.
LUBRICATION
The gearbox is lubricated and cooled with Mobil DTE 25 oil.
OPERATION
High gear and low gear are selected by programming an M41 (Low Gear) or M42 (High Gear). The spindle
will not change gears automatically. The spindle will come to a complete stop when changing gears.
The machine will remain in it's current gear (until changed with an M41 or M42) even after the machine is
powered off. When the machine is powered up, it will be in the same gear (or between gears) as when it was
powered off.
The current gear status is monitored by discrete outputs SP HIG (Spindle High) and SP LOW (Spindle Low).
A "0" (zero) in either of these outputs indicates it is the current gear. If the outputs are the same, neither gear
is selected. If the gearbox remains in this condition (between gears) for a certain amount of time, Alarm 126,
"Gear Fault", is generated. The only way to reset this alarm is to press the POWER UP/RESTART key. The current
gear can also be monitored by pressing the CURNT COMDS key. This display will show whether the machine
is currently in "HIGH GEAR", "LOW GEAR", or "NO GEAR".
There are a number of parameters related to the gearbox. Their values should not be changed by the operator.

5.3 SERVOS ( BRUSHLESS )
SERVO ENCODERS (BRUSHLESS)
Haas machines are equipped with brushless motors, which provide for better performance, and no mainte-
nance. In addition to the performance differences, these machines differ from brush type machines, which
have already been discussed, in the following areas:
The brushless motors have 8192 line encoders built in, which result in differences in acceleration parameters
7, 21,35,49 and 157. The exponential accel/decel time is set by parameters 115, 116 and 168.
"In Position" parameters 101, 102, 103, 104 and 165 also affect brushless motors.
The motor controller board has a dedicated processor which does all the servo control algorithm.
There is no servo distribution board anymore, therefore there is no CHARGE light present. Care should still
be taken however, since there are high voltages present on the amplifiers, even when power is shut off. The
high voltage comes from the vector drive, which does have a CHARGE light.
The servo drive cards are replaced by Brushless Servo Amplifiers, and are controlled differently.
A low voltage power supply card is added to the servo drive assembly to supply the low voltage requirement
to the amplifiers.
The CNC software is version 2.xx.
The user interface and motion profiling have not changed however, and the user should not see any functional
differences between a brush type machine and a brushless machine.
SERVO CHARACTERISTICS (BRUSHLESS)
Servo characteristics are explained in detail in the previous section. The following is an example of how to
achieve 130 inches/minute.
The exponential accel/decel time constant is set by Parameters 113, 114, 115, 116 and 168. It has units of
0.0001 seconds. The speed limit at which exponential accel/decel is not available is defined by the
relationship between Parameters 7 and 113 (for the X-axis). Thus if Parameter 7 is 8000000 steps/sec/sec
and Parameter 113 is 375 (0.0375 seconds); the maximum velocity for accurate interpolation should be:
8000000 x 0.0375 = 300000 steps/second
For an 8192 line encoder and 6 mm screw, this would be:
60 x 300000 / 138718 = 130 inches/minute
SERVO AMPLIFIERS (BRUSHLESS)
The brushless servo amplifier is a PWM based current source. The PWM outputs control the current to a three
phase brushless motor. The PWM frequency is either 12.5 KHz or 16 KHz. The amplifiers are current limited
to 30 amps peak (45A peak for a medium amplifier. However there are fuse limits both in hardware and software
to protect the amplifiers and motors from over current. The nominal voltage for these amplifiers is 320 volts.
Therefore the peak power is about 9600 watts or 13 H.P. The amplifiers also have short circuit, over
temperature and over voltage protection.
104 96-8710
There is a 10 amp (20A for a medium amplifier) supply fuse for failure protection. This fuse is relatively slow,
therefore it can handle the 30 amp peak. Actual continues current limit to the motor is controlled by software.
Commands to the amplifier are +/-5 volts current in two legs of the motor and a digital enable signal. A signal
from the amplifier indicates drive fault or sustained high current in stalled motor.
The connectors on the amplifiers are:
+H.V. + 320 volts DC

-H.V. 320 volts return
A motor lead phase A
B motor lead phase B
C motor lead phase C
J1 Three pin Molex connector used for +/-12 and GND.
J2 Eight pin Molex connector used for input signals.
5.4 INPUT/OUTPUT ASSEMBLY
The IOPCB contains a circuit for electronically turning the tool changer power on and off. This prevents any
arcing of the tool changer relays and increases their life tremendously. This includes an adjustable current
limit to the tool changer. Potentiometer R45 adjusts the current limit to the tool changer motors. R45 should
be set to limit current to between four and six amps.
The IOPCB also contains a circuit for sensing a ground fault condition of the servo power supply. If more
than 0.5 amps is detected flowing through the grounding connection of the 160V DC buss, a ground fault
alarm is generated and the control will turn off servos and stop.
Relay K6 is for the coolant pump 230V AC It is a plug-in type and is double-pole. Relays K9 through K12 are
also plug in types for controlling the tool changer.
The Input/Output Assembly consists of a single printed circuit board called the IOPCB.
The connectors on the IOPCB are:

The JOG handle is actually a 100-line-per-revolution encoder. We use 100 steps per revolution to move one
of the servo axes. If no axis is selected for jogging, turning of the crank has no effect. When the axis being
moved reaches its travel limits, the handle inputs will be ignored in the direction that would exceed the travel
limits.
Parameter 57 can be used to reverse the direction of operation of the handle.
POWER ON/OFF SWITCHES
The POWER ON switch engages the main contactor. The on switch applies power to the contactor coil and
the contactor thereafter maintains power to its coil. The POWER OFF switch interrupts power to the contactor
coil and will always turn power off. POWER ON is a normally open switch and POWER OFF is normally closed.
The maximum voltage on the POWER ON and POWER OFF switches is 24V AC and this voltage is present any
time the main circuit breaker is on.
SPINDLE LOAD METER
The Load meter measures the load on the spindle motor as a percentage of the rated continuous power of
the motor. There is a slight delay between a load and the actual reflection of the meter. The eighth A-to-D
input also provides a measure of the spindle load for cutter wear detection. The second page of diagnostic
data will display % of spindle load. The meter should agree with this display within 5%. The spindle drive
display #7 should also agree with the load meter within 5%.
There are different types of spindle drive that are used in the control. They are all equivalent in performance
but are adjusted differently.
EMERGENCY STOP SWITCH
The EMERGENCY STOP switch is normally closed. If the switch opens or is broken, power to the servos will
be removed instantly. This will also shut off the turret, spindle drive, and coolant pump. The EMERGENCY
STOP switch will shut down motion even if the switch opens for as little 0.005 seconds.
Be careful of the fact that Parameter 57 contains a status switch that, if set, will cause the control to be
powered down when EMERGENCY STOP is pressed.
You should not normally stop a tool change with EMERGENCY STOP as this will leave the tool changer in an
abnormal position that takes special action to correct.
Note that tool changer alarms can be easily corrected by first correcting any mechanical problem, pressing
RESET until the alarms are clear, selecting ZERO RETURN mode, and selecting AUTO ALL AXES.
If the turret should become jammed, the control will automatically come to an alarm state. To correct this,
push the EMERGENCY STOP button and remove the cause of the jam. Push the RESET key to clear any alarms.
Push the ZERO RETURN and the AUTO ALL AXES keys to reset the Z-axis and turret. Never put your
hands near the turret when powered unless the EMERGENCY STOP button is pressed.
96-8710 107
KEYBOARD BEEPER
There is a speaker inside the control panel that is used as an audible response to pressing keyboard buttons
and as a warning beeper. The beeper is a one kHz signal that sounds for about 0.1 seconds when any keypad
key, CYCLE START, or FEED HOLD is pressed. The beeper also sounds for longer periods when an auto-
shutdown is about to occur and when the BEEP AT M30 setting is selected.
If the beeper is not audible when buttons are pressed, the problem could be in the keypad, keyboard interface
PCB or in the speaker. Check that the problem occurs with more than one button and check that the speaker
volume is not turned down.
CONTROL CABINET
The following illustration shows the connectors on the side of the control cabinet.
Figure 5-1. Side of control cabinet.
5.6 MICROPROCESSOR ASSEMBLY
The microprocessor assembly is in the rear cabinet at the top left position. It contains three large boards.
They are: microprocessor, the keyboard and the MOCON. All three boards of the processor assembly receive
power from the low voltage power supply. The three PCBs are interconnected by a local buss on dual 50-
pin connectors. At power-on of the control, some diagnostic tests are performed on the processor assembly
and any problems found will generate alarms 157 or 158. In addition, while the control is operating, it
continually tests itself and a self test failure will generate Alarm 152.
MICROPROCESSOR PCB (68ECO30)
The Microprocessor PCB contains the 68ECO30 processor running at 40 MHz, one 128K EPROM; between
256K and 8MB of CMOS RAM and between 512K and 1MB of FAST STATIC RAM. It also contains a dual serial
port, a five year battery to backup RAM, buffering to the system buss, and eight system status LEDs.
Two ports on this board are used to set the point at which an NMI* is generated during power down and the
point at which RESET* is generated during power down.
108 96-8710
The eight LEDs are used to diagnose internal processor problems. As the system completes power up testing,
the lights are turned on sequentially to indicate the completion of a step. The lights and meanings are:
+5V +5V logic power supply is present. (Normally On)

If this light does not come on, check the low voltage power supply and check that all
three phases of 230V input power are present.
HALT Processor halted in catastrophic fault. (Normally Off)

If this light comes on, there is a serious problem with the processor PCB. Check that the EPROM
is plugged in. Test the card with the buss connectors off.
POR Power-on-reset complete. (Normally On)

If this light does not come on, there is a serious problem with the processor PCB. Check
that the EPROM is plugged in. Test the card with the buss connectors off.
SIO Serial I/O initialization complete. (Normally On)

If this light does not come on, there is a problem with the serial ports. Disconnect
anything on the external RS-232 and test again.
MSG Power-on serial I/O message output complete. (Normally On)

If this light does not come on, there is a problem with serial I/O or interrupts. Disconnect
anything on the external RS-232 and test again.
CRT CRT/VIDEO initialization complete. (Normally On)

If this light does not come on, there is a problem communicating with the VIDEO PCB.
Check the buss connectors and ensure the VIDEO PCB is getting power.
PGM Program signature found in memory.(Normally On)

If this light does not come on, it means that the main CNC program package was not
found in memory or that the auto-start switch was not set. Check that switch S1-1 is on
and the EPROM is plugged in.
RUN Program running without fault exception.(Normally On)

If this light does not come on or goes out after coming on, there is a problem with the microprocessor
or the software running in it. Check all of the buss connectors to the other two PCBs and ensure all
three cards are getting power.
There is a two-position DIP switch on the processor PCB labled S1. Switch S1-1 must be
ON to auto-start the CNC operational program. If S1-1 is OFF, the PGM light will remain off.
Switch S2-1 is used to enable FLASH. If it is disabled it will not be possible to write to FLASH.
The processor connectors are:

J1 Address buss
J2 Data buss
J4 Serial port #1 (for upload/download/DNC) (850)
J5 Serial port #2 (for auxiliary 5th axis) (850A)
J3 Power connector
J6 Battery
96-8710 109
MEMORY RETENTION BATTERY
The memory retention battery is placed into the battery holder soldered into the process board. This is a 3.3V
Lithium battery that maintains the contents of CMOS RAM during power off periods. Prior to this battery being
unusable, an alarm will be generated indicating low battery. If the battery is replaced within 30 days, no data
will be lost. The battery is not needed when the machine is powered on. Connector J6 on the processor PCB
can be used to connect an external battery.
VIDEO KEYBOARD FLOPPY PCB
The VIDEO and KB PCB generates the video data signals for the monitor and the scanning signals for the
keyboard. In addition, the keyboard beeper is generated on this board. There is a single jumper on this board
used to select inverse video. The video PCB connectors are:

MOTOR CONTROLLER (MOCON) BRUSHLESS
The brushless machining centers are equipped with a microprocessor based brushless motor controller board
(MOCON)that replaces the motor interface in the brush type controls. It runs in parallel with the main
processor, receiving servo commands and closing the servo loop around the servo motors.
In addition to controlling the servos and detecting servo faults, the motor controller board, (MOCON), is also
in charge of processing discrete inputs, driving the I/O board relays, commanding the spindle and processing
the jog handle input. Another significant feature is that it controls 6 axes, so there is no need for an additional
board for a 5 axis machine.

5.7 SPINDLE DRIVE ASSEMBLY
The spindle drive is located in the main cabinet on the right side and halfway down. It operates from three-
phase 200 to 240V AC. It has a 10 H.P. (20 H.P. for SL-30 and 40) continuous rating, and a 15 H.P. (30 H.P.
for SL-30 and 40) one-minute rating. The spindle drive is protected by CB1 at 40 amps (20 for High Voltage
option). Never work on the spindle drive until the small red CHARGE light goes out. Until this light goes out,
there are dangerous voltages inside the drive, even when power is shut off.
For all other data on the spindle drive, refer to the supplied documentation for your drive.
HAAS VECTOR DRIVE
The Haas vector drive is a current amplifier controlled by the MOCON software, using the C axis output. The
vector drive parameters are a part of the machine parameters and are accessible through the Haas front panel.
The spindle encoder is used for the closed loop control and spindle orientation, as well as rigid tapping if
the option is available. Spindle speed is very accurate since this is a closed loop control, and the torque output
at low speeds is superior to non vector drive spindles.
5.8 RESISTOR ASSEMBLY
The Resistor Assembly is located on top of the control cabinet. It contains the servo and spindle drive regen
load resistors.
SPINDLE DRIVE REGEN RESISTOR
A 8.6-ohm (6-ohm for SL-30 and 40), 300-watt resistor bank is used by the vector drive to dissipate excess
power caused by the regenerative effects of decelerating the spindle motor. If the spindle motor is accelerated
and decelerated again in rapid succession repeatedly, this resistor will get hot. In addition, if the line voltage
into the control is above 255V, this resistor will begin to heat. This resistor is overtemp protected at 100 0
C. At that temperature, an alarm is generated and the control will begin an automatic shutdown. If the resistor
is removed from the circuit, an alarm may subsequently occur because of an overvoltage condition inside the
spindle drive.
OVERHEAT SENSE SWITCH
There is an overtemperature sense switch mounted near the above-mentioned regen resistors. This sensor
is a normally-closed switch that opens at about 100 0 C. It will generate an alarm and all motion will stop. After
four minutes of an overheat condition, an automatic shutdown will occur in the control.
96-8710 111
5.9 POWER SUPPLY ASSEMBLY
All power to the control passes through the power supply assembly. It is located on the upper right corner
of the control cabinet.
MAIN CIRCUIT BREAKER CB1
Circuit breaker CB1 is rated at 40 amps (20 amps for High Voltage option, 80 amps for SL-30 and 40) and is
used to protect the vector drive and to shut off all power to the control. The locking On/Off handle on the
outside of the control cabinet will shut this breaker off when it is unlocked. A trip of this breaker indicates
a SERIOUS overload problem and should not be reset without investigating the cause of the trip. The full
circuit breaker rating corresponds to as much as 15 horsepower.
MAIN CONTACTOR K1
Main contactor K1 is used to turn the control on and off. The POWER ON switch applies power to the coil
of K1 and after it is energized, an auxiliary switch on K1 continues to apply power to the coil. The POWER
OFF switch on the front panel will always remove power from this contactor.
When the main contactor is off, the only power used by the control is supplied through two ½ amp fuses to
the circuit that activates the contactor. An overvoltage or lightning strike will blow these fuses and shut off
the main contactor.
The power to operate the main contactor is supplied from a 24V AC control transformer that is primary fused
at ½ amp. This ensures that the only circuit powered when the machine is turned off is this transformer and
only low voltage is present at the front panel on/off switches.
LOW VOLTAGE POWER SUPPLY
The low voltage power supply provides +5V DC, +12V DC, and -12V DC to all of the logic sections of the control.
It operates from 115V AC nominal input power. It will continue to operate correctly over a 90V AC to 133V
AC range.
POWER PCB (POWER)
The low voltage power distribution and high voltage fuses and circuit breakers are mounted on a circuit board
called the POWER PCB. The following connectors are on it:
P1 Five-pin brings 230V AC three phase from main breaker

P3 Coil and aux connections to contactor K1
P4 Auto-off connection to IOPCB (170)

For older internal transformer with 208/230 taps:

TB1 230V AC from contactor K1
TB2 230V AC to T1 primary
POWER-UP LOW VOLTAGE CONTROL TRANSFORMER (T5)
The low voltage control transformer, T5, supplies power to the coil of the main contactor K1. It guarantees
that the maximum voltage leaving the Power Supply assembly when power is off is 12V AC to earth ground.
It is connected via P5 to the POWER PCB.
SECONDARY CIRCUIT BREAKERS
The following circuit breakers are located on the Power supply assembly.
CB2 controls the 115volt power from the main transformer to the servo transformers and, if tripped, will turn
off the servo motors and air solenoids. CB2 could be blown by a severe servo overload.
CB3 controls the power to coolant pump only. It can be blown by an overload of the coolant pump motor
or a short in the wiring to the motor.
CB4 controls the 115V AC to the air solenoids, 4th axis brake, and the oiler. It is never expected to trip. If
it does trip, it is likely caused by a short circuit in the wiring on the I/O assembly or the wiring to the solenoids
on the spindle head.
OPERATOR'S LAMP
The operator's lamp is using 115 VAC taken from P19 on the main power distribution.
96-8710 113
5.10 POWER TRANSFORMER ASSEMBLY (T1)
The power transformer assembly is used to convert three-phase input power (50/60Hz) to three phase 230V
and 115V power. Two different transformers are used depending on the input voltage range. The low voltage
transformer has four different input connections to allow for a range of voltages from 195 V RMS to 260 V
RMS. The high voltage transformer has five different input connections and will accept a range of voltages
from 354V RMS to 488 V RMS.
The 230 V is used to power the spindle drive, which also develops the 325 VDC power for the axis servo
amplifiers. The 115 V is used by the video monitor, solenoids, fans and pumps, in addition to supplying power
to the main LVPS used by the control electronics.
The transformer assembly is located in the lower right hand corner of the main cabinet. Besides the high/low
voltage variations, two different power levels are available depending on the spindle motor used. The small
and large transformers have power ratings of 14 KVA and 28 KVA, respectively. They are protected by the main
circuit breaker to the levels shown in the preceding table.
Fig. 5-2a Transformer with 354-488V range Fig 5-2b Transformer with 195-260V range
PRIMARY CONNECTION TO T1
Input power to T1 is supplied through CB1, the 40 amp or 80 amp three-phase main circuit breaker. Three-
phase 230 to T1 is connected to the first three terminals of TB10.
VOLTAGE SELECTION TAPS
There are four labeled plastic terminal blocks. Each block has three connections for wires labeled 74, 75, and
76. Follow the instructions printed on the transformer.
SECONDARY CONNECTION TO T1
The secondary output from T1 is 115V AC three-phase CB2 protects the secondary of transformer T1 and is
rated at 25 amps.

5.11 FUSES
The brushless amplifier has one fuse, F1 15 amps. This fuse protects the amplifier itself from drastic damage.
If this fuse is ever blown, the associated motor will stop. This will only happen if there is a failure of the
amplifier card and the user should never attempt to replace these fuses.
The POWER PCB contains three ½-amp fuses located at the top right (FU1, FU2, FU3). If the machine is subject
to a severe overvoltage or a lightning strike, these fuses will blow and turn off all of the power. Replace these
fuses only with the same type and ratings. The other two fuses protect the turret (FU5) and the operator's
lamp (FU4).

5.12 SPARE USER M CODE INTERFACE
The M code interface uses outputs M21-24 and one discrete input circuit. M codes M21 through M24 will
activate relays labeled M21-24. These relay contacts are isolated from all other circuits and may switch up
to 120V AC at three amps. The relays are SPDT. WARNING! Power circuits and inductive loads must have
snubber protection.
Note: If the optional Mcode relay board is installed relays M21-M28 become available on
the secondary board. These relays willl be controlled by outputs M21-M28.
The M-FIN circuit is a normally open circuit that is made active by bringing it to ground. The one M-FIN applies
to all three of the user M codes.
The timing of a user M function must begin with all circuits inactive, that is, all circuits open. The timing is
as follows:
The Diagnostic Data display page may be used to observe the state of these signals.
M FUNCTION RELAYS
The IOPCB contains position for four relays (M21-M24) and the optional M code relay board contains eight
(M21-M28), either one of these groups of relays may be available to the user. M21 is already wired out to P12
at the side of the control cabinet. This is a four-pin DIN connector and includes the M-FIN signal.
Note: If the optional M code relay board is installed, the relays on the IOPCB are to be left
unused.
M-FIN DISCRETE INPUT
The M-FIN discrete input is a low voltage circuit. When the circuit is open, there is +12V DC at this signal.
When this line is brought to ground, there will be about 10 milliamps of current. M-FIN is discrete input #10
and is wired from input #10 on the Inputs PCB on the Input/Output Assembly. The return line for grounding
the circuit should also be picked up from that PCB. For reliability, these two wires should be routed in a
shielded cable where the shield is grounded at one end only. The diagnostic display will show this signal
a 1 when the circuit is open and a 0 when this circuit is grounded.
116 96-8710
TURNING M FUNCTIONS ON AND OFF
The three optional M code relays can also be separately turned on and off using M codes M51-M54 and M61-
M64. M51 to M54 will turn on one of the relays and M61 to M63 will turn the relays off. M51 and M61
correspond to M21, etc.
Note: If the M code relay board is installed then M51 - M58 will turn on the relays and
M61-M68 will turn off the relays. M51 and M61 correspond to M21, etc. on the M code
relay board.
WIRING THE RELAYS
The relays are marked on both the IOPCB and the M code relay board, with their respective terminals forward
of them. If the optional M code relay board is installed then the connections on the IOPCB are to be left unused
as they are replaced by the relays on the optional board. Refer to the figures below, and the Probe Option figure
in the Electrical Diagrams section for the terminal labeling. Maximum voltage for the relays is 125 VAC with
a maximum amperage of 3 amps.
WARNING! Power circuits and inductive loads must have snubber protection.
IOPCB Relays M Code Relay Board
CAUTION! If a screw terminal is already in use DO NOT connect anything else to it. Call you
dealer.
5.13 LUBRICATION PUMP
The lubrication system is a resistance type system which forces oil through metering units at each of the 16
lubricating points within the machine. The system uses one metering unit at each of the lubricating points:
one for each linear guide pad, one for each lead screw and one for spindle lubrication. A single oil pump is
used to lubricate the system. The pump is powered only when the spindle and/or an axis moves. Once powered
the pump cycles approximately 3.0 cc of oil every 30 minutes throughout the oil lines to the lube points. Every
lube point receives approximately 1/16 of oil. The control monitors this system through an internal level
switch in the reservoir and external pressure switch on the lube panel.
LOW LUBRICATION AND LOW PRESSURE SENSE SWITCHES
There is a low lube sense switch in the oil tank. When the oil is low, an alarm will be generated. This alarm
will not occur until the end of a program is reached. There is also an lube pressure switch that senses the
lube pressure. Parameter 117 controls the lube pressure check. If Parameter 117 is not zero, the lube pressure
is checked for cycling high within that period. Parameter 117 has units of , 1/50 seconds; so 30 minutes gives
a value of 90000. Parameter 57, bit "Oiler on/off", indicates the lube pump is only powered when the spindle
fan is powered. The lube pressure is only checked when the pump is on.
96-8710 117
5.14 SWITCHES
LAMP ON/OFF SWITCH
An on/off switch is supplied for the operator's lamp. It is located on the side of the control cabinet below
all of the motor connectors.
DOOR OPEN SENSE SWITCH
The DOOR OPEN switch is in the open position when the door is open and closed when the door is fully closed.
When the doors open, one or both of these switches will open and the machine will stop with a Door Hold
function. When the door is closed again, operation will continue normally.
If the doors are open, you will not be able to start a program. Door Hold will not stop a tool change operation
or a tapping operation, and will not turn off the coolant pump. Also, if the doors are open, the spindle speed
will be limited to 500 RPM.
The Door Hold function can be temporarily disabled with by turning Setting 51 on, if Parameter 57 bits DOOR
STOP SP and SAFETY CIRC are set to zero, but this setting will return to OFF when the control is turned off.
LIMIT SWITCHES
TURRET CLAMP/UNCLAMP SWITCHES

There are two switches used to sense the position of the turret. They are both normally closed and one will
activate at the end of travel during unclamping and the other during clamping. When both switches are closed,
it indicates that the turret is between positions.
The diagnostic display can be used to display the status of the relay outputs and the switch inputs.
DOOR HOLD SWITCH

The switch is normally closed. When the door opens, the switch will open and the machine will stop with a
Door Hold function. When the door is closed again, operation will continue normally.
If the door is open, you will not be able to start a program. Door hold will not stop a tool change operation,
will not turn off the spindle, and will not turn off the coolant pump.
The door hold function can be temporarily disabled with Setting 51, but this setting will return to OFF when
the control is turned off.
X AND Z LIMIT SWITCHES

Prior to performing a POWER UP/RESTART or an AUTO ALL AXES operation, there are no travel limits. Thus,
you can jog into the hard stops in either direction for X and Z. After a ZERO RETURN has been performed,
the travel limits will operate unless an axis hits the limit switch. When the limit switch is hit, the zero returned
condition is reset and an AUTO ALL AXES must be done again. This is to ensure that if you hit the limit switch,
you can still move the servo back away from it.
The limit switches are normally closed. When a search for zero operation is being performed, the X and Z axes
will move towards the limit switch unless it is already active (open); then they will move away from the switch
until it closes again; then they will continue to move until the encoder Z channel is found. This position is
machine zero.
118 96-8710
TURRET HOME SWITCH

The tool rotation turret has a switch that is activated when tool #1 is in the cutting position. At POWER ON
this switch indicates that tool #1 is in the cutting position. If this switch is not active at power-on, the first
tool change will rotate the turret until the switch engages and then move to the selected tool. The diagnostic
display will show this status of this input switch as TOOL #1. A 1 indicates that tool #1 is in position.
What Can Go Wrong With Limit Switches?

If the machine is operated without connector P5, a LOW LUBE and DOOR OPEN alarm will be generated. In
addition, the Home search will not stop at the limit switch and will instead run into the physical stops on each
axis.
If the switch is damaged and permanently open, the zero search for that axis will move in the negative direction
at about 0.5 in/min until it reaches the physical travel stops at the opposite end of travel.
If the switch is damaged and permanently closed, the zero search for that axis will move at about 10 in/min
in the positive direction until it reaches the physical stops.
If the switch opens or a wire breaks after the zero search completes, an alarm is generated, the servos are
turned off, and all motion stops. The control will operate as though the zero search was never performed. The
RESET can be used to turn servos on but you can jog that axis only slowly.
5.15 DIAGNOSTIC DATA
The ALARM MSGS display is the most important source of diagnostic data. At any time after the machine
completes its power-up sequence, it will either perform a requested function or stop with an alarm. Refer to
the alarms list for , their possible causes, and some corrective action.
If there is an electronics problem, the controller may not complete the power-up sequence and the CRT will
remain blank. In this case, there are two sources of diagnostic data; these are the audible beeper and the LEDs
on the processor PCB. If the audible beeper is alternating a ½ second beep, there is a problem with the main
control program stored in EPROMs on the processor PCB. If any of the processor electronics cannot be
accessed correctly, the LEDs on the processor PCB will or will not be lit.
If the machine powers up but has a fault in one of its power supplies, it may not be possible to flag an alarm
condition. If this happens, all motors will be kept off and the top left corner of the CRT will have the message:
POWER FAILURE ALARM
and all other functions of the control will be locked out.
When the machine is operating normally, a second push of the PARAM/DGNOS key will select the diagnostics
display page. The PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys are then used to select one of two different displays. These
are for diagnostic purposes only and the user will not normally need them. The diagnostic data consists of
32 discrete input signals, 32 discrete output relays and several internal control signals. Each can have the
value of 0 or 1. In addition, there are up to three analog data displays and an optional spindle RPM display.
Their number and functions are:

6. PARAMETERS
Parameters are seldom-modified values that change the operation of the machine. These include servo motor
types, gear ratios, speeds, stored stroke limits, lead screw compensations, motor control delays and macro
call selections. These are all rarely changed by the user and should be protected from being changed by the
parameter lock setting. If you need to change parameters, contact HAAS or your dealer. Parameters are
protected from being changed by Setting 7.
The Settings page lists some parameters that the user may need to change during normal operation and these
are simply called "Settings". Under normal conditions, the parameter displays should not be modified. A
complete list of the parameters is provided here.
The PAGE UP, PAGE DOWN, up and down cursor keys , and the jog handle can be used to scroll through the
parameter display screens in the control. The left and right cursor keys are used to scroll through the bits
in a single parameter.

SPND DRV LCK This bit must be set to 0 if machine is equipped with a Haas vector spindle
drive.
CHUCK OPN CS When set to 1, the user can press CYCLE START and run a program with the
chuck unclamped. If the spindle is commanded with this bit set to 1, the spindle
will not exceed the CHUCK UNCLAMP RPM (Parameter 248). The default for this
bit is 0. This feature is ineffective when the CE safety circuit is enabled.
CNCR SPINDLE When set to 0, spindle start occurs at the end of a block, as in normal M code
operation. When set to 1, spindle start occurs at the beginning of a block and
concurrent with axis motion.
TL SET PROBE This bit must be set to 1 in order to enable the Tool Pre-Setter.
HAAS VECT DR (Haas Vector Drive) This bit must be set to 1 if machine is equipped with a HAAS
vector spindle drive. When set to 1, voltage to the Haas vector drive is

for machines with a Haas Vector Drive, and 0 for machines without a Vector Drive.
D:Y SW ENABL Delta Wye switch enable, this is used for machine with a Vector Drive. If this
switch is set, but bit 19 is not, then winding switching will only be done when
the spindle is at rest, depending on the target speed of the spindle
DY SW ON FLY Delta Wye switch enable, this is used for machine with a Vector Drive. This
parameter enables switching on the fly, as the spindle motor is accelerating or
decelerating through the switch point.
CK BF STATUS This bit has been added for the improved Bar Feeder interface. When this bit is
set to 1, the control will constantly check the Bar Feeder Status on discrete input
1027. If this input goes high, alarm 450 BAR FEEDER FAULT will be generated
and the servos and spindle will be turned off. Note that the spindle will simply
coast to a stop.
CK BF SP ILK This bit has been added for the improved Bar Feeder interface. When this bit is
set to 1, the control will constantly check the Bar Feeder Spindle Interlock on
discrete input 1030. If this input goes high, and the spindle is being com
manded to turn, or coasting or being manually turned at 10rpm or more, alarm
451 BAR FEEDER SPINDLE INTERLOCK will be generated and the servos and
spindle will be turned off. Note that the spindle will simply coast to a stop.
SAFETY INVERT This bit supports the CE door interlock that locks when power is turned off. For
machines that have the regular door lock that locks when power is applied, this
bit must be set to 0. For machines that have the inverted door lock, this bit must
be set to 1.
LIVE TOOLING Lathes fitted with the Live Tooling drive this bit must be set to 1. For all other
lathes, this bit is set to 0.
INV SPD DCEL Inverse spindle speed deceleration. When this parameter is set to 1, the spindle
decelerates faster at lower speeds, resulting in a shorter deceleration time.
Parameter 291 HYDRAULIC TAIL STK NO MOTION DETEC TIME

The number in milliseconds that must pass with no B-axis encoder change
before the control decides that the tailstock has stopped. The parameter affects
homing and alarm situations on the tailstock. If the tailstock pressure is set low
and the tailstock does not home properly then increase this parameter.
Parameter 292 HYD TS RTRACT MARGN (Hydraulic Tailstock Retract Margin)

This parameter sets the acceptable range, in encoder steps, for the retract point.
When the tailstock stops anywhere within this range, the control assumes it is
at the retract point. The default is 5 encoder steps. This means that a 10
encoder step range is set around the retract point.
Parameter 293 HYD TS SLOW DISTNCE (Hydraulic Tailstock Slow Distance)

This parameter sets the distance, prior to a target point, where the tailstock will
transition from a rapid movement to a feed. For example, if this parameter is set
to 30 (the default), this means the tailstock will slow to a feed 30 encoder steps
before reaching the target point.encoder steps.
144 96-8710
Parameter 294 MIN BUSS VOLTAGE

This parameter specifies the minimum Haas Vector Drive buss voltage. If the
machine has a Haas Vector Drive, the paramter should be set to 200 (volts).
Machines without a Vector Drive should be set to 0. Alarm 160 LOW VOLTAGE
will be generated if the voltage falls below the minimum specified.
Parameter 296 MAX OVER VOLT TIME

Specifies the amount of time (in 50ths of a second)that an overvoltage condition
(alarm 119 OVER VOLTAGE) will be tolerated before the automatic shut down
process is started.
Parameter 297 MAX OVERHEAT TIME

Specifies the amount of time (in 50ths of a second ) that an overheat condition
(alarm 122 REGEN OVERHEAT) will be tolerated before the automatic shut down
process is started.
Parameter 299 AUTOFEED STEP-UP

This parameter works with the AUTOFEED feature. It specifies the feed rate step-
up percentage per second and should initially be set to 10.
Parameter 300 AUTOFEED-STEP-DOWN

This parameter works with the AUTOFEED feature. It specifies the feed rate step-
down percentage per second and should initially be set to 20.
Parameter 301 AUTOFEED-MIN-LIMIT

This parameter works with the AUTOFEED feature. It specifies the minimum
allowable feed rate override percentage that the AUTOFEED feature can use and
should initially be set to 1. For more information see AUTOFEED under the
new features section.
NOTES: When tapping, the feed and spindle overrides will be locked out, so the
AUTOFEED feature will be ineffective (although the display will appear to respond to the
override buttons.)
The last commanded feed rate will be restored at the end of the program execution, or when the
operator presses RESET or turns off the AUTOFEED feature.
The operator may use the feed rate override buttons while the AUTOFEED feature is active. As
long as tool load limit is not exceeded, these buttons will have the expected effect and the
overridden feed rate will be recognized as the new commanded feed rate by the AUTOFEED
feature. However, if the tool load limit has already been exceeded, the control will ignore the feed
rate override buttons and the commanded feed rate will remain unchanged.
Parameter 304 SPINDLE BRAKE DELAY

This parameter specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) to wait
for the main spindle brake to unclamp when spindle speed has been
commanded, and also the amount of time to wait after the main spindle
has been commanded to stop before clamping it.
Parameter 305 SERVO PO BRK DLY

Specifies the time (in milliseconds) that the control should wait after turning off
the Hyd Pump Enable relay (which will activate the brake) before turning off
power to the servo motors via the MOCON. This is intended to allow time for the
brake to engage.

1.1 GENERAL MACHINE OPERATION

MACHINE NOT RUNNING

´ Machine cannot be powered on.

´ Machine can be powered on, but turns off by itself.

´ Machine turns on, keyboard beeps, but no CRT display.

´ Any LED on Microprocessor PCB goes out (except HALT).

´ Machine turns on, CRT works, but no keyboard keys work.

´ Machine vibrates while spindle is on and is not cutting. Sometimes only at

´ The machine vibrates excessively in a cut.

´ Diameters are out of round

´ Diameters are incorrect in X-axis

´ Center holes are malformed

´ Part faces are conical

´ Bores are tapered

´ Outside diameter (O.D.) is tapered

´ Material left after facing a part

´ Machining yields a poor finish.

VERIFY THERMAL GROWTH

´ Spindle not turning.

´ Excessive noise coming from the spindle head area.

1.3 TRANSMISSION (SL-30 AND SL40)

´ Excessive or unusual noise coming from transmission.

GEARS WILL NOT CHANGE

´ Machine will not execute a gear change.

INCORRECT GEAR SELECTED OR SENSED

´ Spindle speed is not consistent with selected gear.

1.4 SERVO MOTORS / LEADSCREWS

´ Servo motor is not functioning.

´ Servo motor noise.

´ Lead screw noise.

l Check the lead screw for misalignment.

´ Poor Z-axis accuracy.
