I'm interested if anyone else has an issue with their WW2.0's throwing a "gantry motion alarm" which is a "no motion detected while motor running" alarm.
I have replaced gantry can eyes (measurement eyes), wheel proxes, checked gauging on prox distance, checked input & outputs at gantry cards. all test out fine. measurement eye turns on and off as meant too. track counts come back positive, Voltage all correct. All eyes are set to proper frequencies and test off properly.
the really odd thing is that i am starting to get the same "alarms" on 4 different bays. in 1 bay i can run a 6 pass recipe no problem but with an 8 pass recipe this would happen on the end of the 7th pass. the gantry would not stop at the end of the vehicle, continue to the end of track and then shut down as it was beginning the final pass. Then, i get the alarm. I do see that the gantry does not begin to slow down as it approaches the end of the vehicle for which i have set at a (15) count. Normally this would tell me that it is a measurement issue (either measurement eyes or wheel proxes) but all are good. It almost seems like its an issue with the programming from the red lion not being sent except, everything else is working great. Slowing my gantry speed on pass 7 has worked around the issue but not fixed it.
Any input would be appreciated. thanks
