THE PANTOGRAPH MOVES IN ONE DIRECTION ONLY

Osman Bayrak

THE PANTOGRAPH MOVES IN ONE DIRECTION ONLY, EITHER IN THE X OR Y AXIS:

  1. Check all wiring to the X & Y Motors. The Y Motor is under the Keyboard, and the X Motor is under the small black cover at the left end of the Black Pantograph Bar.
  2. Test the 5 volt setting as outlined in the first 2 sections of this guide.
  3. The next possibility is the 4 Axis PCB. Reseat the PCB first using the CPU/4Axis PCB replacement information in the Tech Manual.
  4. If the problem still exists, call your distributor for the 4 Axis PCB
  5. If the X Axis (Left & Right movement of X Carriage) doesn't work still, the X Motor may need to be replaced.
  6. If the Y Axis (Forward & Back movement of X Beam) doesn't move in one direction or the other, the Y Motor may need to be replaced. Call your distributor for the part.
  7. There could also be a sticking key on the Keyboard. Call your distributor for the part.
  8. If the problem persists, call your distributor for a service call.
