second blackbox out of order ;(

hello everyone, my name is alexande. I am in France.

I am in the process of assembling a CNC sphinx of 1000x1000mm.

I have a problem, the first blackbox received gave me an error after various and varied tests on the end of the races.

as a precaution before installing the new one which was sent to me by "ratrig ltd" seller in portugal, I tested all the cables to be sure that none are damaged. no worries everything works.

I therefore installed my new blackbox, after a home all, I set to control the speed of the vfd from openbuild control, successful test. I then decide to test my software limit switches to make sure that everything is good before putting the right plate.

and the limit switch X shows me 801mm while it is at zero, and the Y shows me approximately -1200000. if I click on set zero of C, it goes to zero, then I click on set zero of Y it goes to zero but the X goes back to 801 and so on in turn without stopping. thinking that the vfd was a problem I unplug it completely and I also unplug the connector from the pin but no change.

after turning off openbuilds control and relaunching i again have an error 7, the eeprom is unreadable and then i can't do anything, reset does nothing to flash the eeprom either.

would you have a clue to give me before contacting the seller again to replace this blackbox.

small precision the end of races are openbuilds, the power supply is a meanwell everything was bought at the same time as the blackbox.

I will try to post the videos that I was able to host on youtube to send to the seller if necessary.

I apologize in advance if the translation is not ideal.

best regards alexandre.

 

Hello Peter Van Der Walt,

thank you for the answer I will do the procedure again and I will come back to you.

Best regards.

 

Hello Peter,

i do the test witout any cable on the blackbox, is the same.

No connection...... what other test is it possible to do.

I tested all the cables wire by wire, I removed them from the cable chains to make sure that no cables were damaged inside.
