These diagnostics are included in the control module for Programmable Gantries since version XXY01.
See character map of keypad for shifted keys to use these commands.
Press
“T” for Test
The display should show “D-E-F?”
Next press
“D” to check Drives
E for Encoders
F to Finish; get back to main menu
After selecting either D or E, for Drive or Encoder, the display will show
“Axis No.”
Press 1 for Axis 1: main drive, 2: for Axis 2: cross drive (or 3 for 2nd X- drive on a Gantry).
If drive was selected, the axis selected should run:
1 second forward (display shows “F”)
1 second back (display shows “B”)
The drive should move regardless of whether encoder pulses are counted, at the speed set by the speed pot.
If Encoder was selected, the encoder count of the corresponding encoder (1 or 2) should scroll up continuously in the
display. Press any key to stop.
Rotating the encoder in either direction will increase or decrease the displayed count, if the computer is successfully
counting the pulses from it. The encoder can be rotated manually if disengaged, or by using the joystick to move in the
desired direction.
Note: the count is in hexadecimal notation (number base 16) (10H=16 decimal, 400H =1024 decimal).
Press
“V” for Version.
The display will show the program version number; e.g. SH005 or XXYOI, etc.
Applicable to new program versions only.
