Gentlemen,
 
Attached are photo's of the installation.
 
At this moment the XL-12000 is coming back to ULS. The Z axis is not working.
This engraver had several issues:
A)  1st servo CPU board had no Y axis motion
B)  2nd servo CPU board had no Y or Z axis
C)  3rd CPU board had X and Y but no Z axis and then the system showed that there was no CPU and the hard drive was replaced. Tried other board but no motion on the Z axis.
 
The 9200 is running jobs smoothly so far.
A) There appears to be a spurt of max power every so often while engraving in vector mode, about every 2 inches.
B) The display has a flash that occurs every 45 seconds
C) the table was raised into the arm and then tried to home while auto focusing the system and having the cutting table installed. The arm had to be re-squared.
 

XL recommendations:

 

1)      Quick connect for leads to CPU 48 volt power supply.

2)      Quick swap Hard Drive mount

3)      Driver issues - 

a.       Items on border or off page – Give bad file error instead of HW error, or specify the error encountered instead of locking up engraver.

b.      Color issues - Color error instead of HW error or having engraver lock up and have to be rebooted.

 

Other issues – Autofocus does not detect cutting table: Cutting table was not installed in on-system menu but was installed in the engraver. Show a warning when auto focusing with a forced acknowledgement.

 
 
Best Regards,
