Any help appreciated. I’ve ready forums and FB group and tried everything I can think of. Have an email to support to see if they have any ideas.
Machine worked fine and didn’t use it for a couple of months. No one in the shop during that time. When I went to use it the torch raises as it cuts until it’s about .75" from the material.
I noticed that as it’s cutting the Active up, down buttons in the THC portion of the screen no longer light up as the machine is running.
Thing I’ve tried:
Pulled THC module and re-installed
Disconnected all wires from the box and check for corrosion, wires looks good
Updated firmware on THC, and latest version of fire control
Installed software on laptop and tested it (still doesn’t show the THC moving the torch)
All new parts in the nozzle multiple times
All book settings (live voltage and smart voltage 129V) Voltage changes as it’s cutting
Lowered and raised voltage way out of recommended setting with same results.
Slower faster cut speed
Pulled Z apart and checked connection there
Clamp on multiple spots on the work piece
disabled limit switches
rerouted the USB cable
No water near the wires or control box
ran voltage check in fire control. 0.0V resting and 127V torch test all good results
I’ve spent hours searching the internet and forums for a solution and nothing has worked at this point.
