Software Policy: We do not sell or distribute
Fadal copyrighted software. Boards such as the 1400 CPU board
and the 1010 Axis controller board requires Fadal copyrighted
software. It is best to retain and use your original Eproms and
avoid introducing software compatibility issues. Contact a
Fadal authorized Eprom supplier, they provide Eprom upgrade
exchanges, usually for free.
About the Axis Controller:
The Fadal CNC Control uses one 1010 board for controlling
each axis in a machine. The axis controller boards receive input
position, direction and speed commands from the CPU via 1030
board then outputs commands to the axis amplifier. The amplifier
rotates the axis motor and the resolver or encoder provides
position information back to the 1010 controller board. The axis
controller then uses this information to adjust the outputs to
the amplifier to maintain the commanded speed and position. The
Axis Controller boards are the same for each axis except for the
jumper configuration on the board and the EPROMs change
from linear travel (X, Y, & Z) to rotary travel (A & B). The
jumpers determine the axis, the travel and the direction of
rotation for the specific axis. It is very important that the
jumpers are set correctly.
The Axis Controller boards store and use the ball screw
compensation, amplifier signal gain and position offset
information. The position offset information is used for cold
start position, for DC machine this would be zero unless glass
scale option and for AC servo motors using either the encode or
linear glass scales feedback.
There have been several versions of the Axis Controller board:
• 1010-1 has one program EPROM and one Tab EPROM (ball screw pitch error
compensation)
• 1010-4 has two program EPROMs U7 & U10 and compensation, gain & offset
are stored in EPROM
• 1010-5 has two program EPROMs U15 & U18 and compensation, gain & offset
are stored in EEPROM
• 1010-6 has two program EPROMs U15 & U18 and compensation, gain & offset
are stored in EEPROM
Each version of the Axis Controller board requires its own
software. The –5 & -6 versions use the same software.
The connections for the axis controller boards are:
J1 – Signal 2 output
J2 – Resolver signal input,
J3 – not used
J5 – Encoder input
J6 – Optional scale input.
Not all of these connections are used on each machine.
Special configurations:
Servo Coolant option – uses an axis controller board with
special program EPROMs. If no rotary table is installed, this
board can be installed in either slot 12 or 13. With an A-axis
installed the servo coolant must be in slot 12. If an A & B axis
are installed, a Servo Coolant option CANNOT be added.
Tri-Tech Head option – both Axis Controllers in slot 12 & 13 are
configured as A-axis and SETP parameter is set. Two pallets each
with an A-axis option - both Axis Controllers in slot 12 & 13
are configured as A-axis and special software is installed.
True Knowledge and
Experience you can Trust:
Experience - Always Your
Best Choice:
Having
been involved in the original design and production of the CNC88 hardware and software, we truly understand these boards; to
the component level and the requirements for properly repairing
and testing of all the boards we offer. With over 18 years of
production testing and repairing the CNC88 boards, there is
none better experienced or equipped than ITS.
Independent Technology Service Inc. (ITS), the original PCB
board house for Fadal, has been testing and repairing production boards, since 1991.
On your board, chances are you'll see the
stamp already on it!
Before You Buy - Ask how
the board was tested!
One simple question can save you a
lot of frustration, wasted time and money when servicing a
problematic machine. The common "repair" method today for others
selling boards is to put a used board in a machine and see if it
fails. It cannot be considered a "good board" just because the
control doesn't fault. Most of the time there is no history
of the board, no record of past performance (problems).
In fact, without proper testing, chances are you will be getting
other unknown board problems when installing used, untested boards; wasting
even more of your time and money!
Testing That Is
Unsurpassed!
We are the only
ones who can properly test and repair CNC88 boards! It
requires component level testing to verify that each and every
component is performing to original specifications.
The Best And Only Way - In
Circuit and Functional Testing:
The testing of electric circuits to determine and locate any of the
following circuit conditions:
(1) an open circuit.
(2) a short circuit with another conductor in the same circuit.
(3) a ground, which is a short circuit between a conductor and ground.
(4) leakage (a high-resistance path across a portion of the circuit, to
another circuit, or to ground).
(5) a cross (a short circuit or leakage between conductors of different
circuits).
(6) a marginal or failed component(s).
The simple fact is that
proper circuit testing for complex systems requires extensive
automatic testing equipment to determine the failures defined
above as well as many other quantities required to insure the
board is working correctly.
CNC Board Replacement Options:
1- New or Remanufactured exchanges
are available for
immediate shipping, requires core exchange. A core refund
is issued when we receive the bad PCB board. The core
return board must be in a state that is repairable not damaged.
2- We will repair your board, for about 1/2 the cost of exchange
replacement! Rush repairs are available on most boards.
