Brand new, need help to do my first cut on crossfire

1

I’m looking for information to do my first cut. I have the crossfire 2x2 with the razorcur45.

  1. what are the air pressure setting?
  2. my THC does not work, first time I tried to jog it up, it went all the way down and got stuck. I called support he said the plastic nut that raise the the was broken and I don’t think so. now the motor don’t even work when I tried to jog, you don’t hear the Z motor, some one said in the forum the driver might be corrupted.
  3. is there some docs that to help you run your first cut, what are the setting on the thickness of the material, speed, amp setting and so on
  4. how to fire the razorcut for testing

please help if you can thank you

Welcome to the forum. Sorry you are having these problems. Before answering air pressure and settings, you need to get control of the z-axis.
At the enclosure: Plug the z-axis into the x-axis and see if moving in the x direction will move the z axis. This will confirm whether the z-driver is dead if it will move with the x-driver.

thanks Jim,
ok I swapped the x axis for the z axis and z axis is working, it’s going up and down
and the x axis is not working so what do you think is the issue?
thanks

That means the issue is with the driver inside the control box. Open the box and the driver’s should be green boards that are attached to the ports on the back of the box.

Locate the Z axis driver and make sure the little dip switches are in the same positions as the ones on the X axis driver.

If it’s not the switches, the driver may be bad and Langmuir will probably send you a new one after they have you do some tests.

Here is the dip switches he is talking about. All switches should be up except for #2:

While you are in there…

Check to make sure your THC chip is fully seated, the Torch Fire relay is fully seated, and all the other connections to the boards are fully seated.

Not related to your Axis issue, more over preventative.

thanks again Jim,
I spoke the Langmuir support, he said that the driver is bad, he’s sending a new one and in the meantime I will be making sure the switch on the driver is properly set and seated. we’ll keep you posted. thank you
