E-Stop Error (Machine Is Disabled)
The E-Stop turns the power off to the axis and spindle motors. On the RX control system, the
message that is displayed when a user presses the E-Stop button is as follows: “ Servos not enabled
– Please press power reset button on the front panel to enable the servos”.
Possible Cause
Check This
E-Stop Switch Failure
Confirm E-Stop is not engaged.
Verify all cable connections to Pendant and Computer
Module are correct.
Confirm “E-Stop” LED is ON in the LED Status group on
the rear of the unit only when E-Stop is engaged.
Replace Pendant if the above does not resolve the issue
Wiring Faulting
For a constant E-Stop message and the LED’s on the
computer module are all off, check the remote E-stop
cable and connections. Take a cable like the door switch
cable and plug it into the remote E-Stop connector. If the
LED for this comes on and the 2 pendant E-Stop LEDs
come on, then the remote E-Stop cable or wiring is at
fault.
3.1.13
Touchscreen Does Not Respond
This means when the user presses the screen, there is no feedback from the touchscreen. When
the touchscreen is working properly, every touch of the screen produces a noticeable “touch dot” on
the screen. When you see this touch dot, it means the operating system sees the touch. If this
touch dot is not present then the OS has not seen it nor has our software.
Possible Cause
Check This
Internal connection Issue
A “touch dot” should appear on the screen where contact
with the screen is made.
For touching the softkeys, a beep is generated by the
Pendant on touching the key. (The info area of the
screen does not generate a beep sound.)
Power cycle the Pendant. If the problem persists, replace
the Pendant
3.1.14

If the problem persists, replace the Pendant Module
