    How to access DOS on QMDI Pro?

    I've no experience with the QMDI Pro, however if it uses either windows XP or 2000 instead of DOS it should be easy to retrieve username + Password. Plenty of tools such as Ophcrack are designed to retrieve windows passwords by booting to a CD instead of the hard drive

    Hi dave thanks for the reply I have all posts in the thread you sent. (although this is a QM46-1 not the QM46-4 and doesnt have walkway etc.... cable to motor is different) I believe the encoder is connected coorectly as I can see the current press angle. Thanks for the information and I'll...

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    Sorry Stan I somehow missed your last post. To update the thread an engineer just sent me a new MRK board which made no difference. I am aware of 3 problems. (Possibly not all related) - Main motor will not switch on "Inching" or "production" (LED on button does not flash) - Pump for blast...

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    Just back from the press and reporting back. The error 11-05 I don't believe to be an issue as it disappears at pressure, however the other error 15-01 I have double checked the manaul and can confirm it is apparently a MRK error. SF56 only repors 15-01 and no other problems, all guards are...

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    Thanks for the reply error 11-05 disappears when the press approaches the correct pressure, once disappeared the light to start blowers / suction starts to flash and there is now no other errors in conjunction with 15-01. I have been hand cranking the press to check cylinders / rollers etc...

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    I've now removed the "Y4" device and blocked the hose outlet to prevent loss of pressure and there is now no leaks. However the needle on the guage is sitting about 2mm below the green section where it is then letting any further air out through pinholes around the adjuster knob on the top of...

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    Thanks for all the replies, sorry my previous reply was incorrect although my gauge is getting into the green area the compressor is not switching off I assume its never reaching the correct pressure? Also I can hear air leaking out of Y4 (non operator side). Could this be the cause of this issue?

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    I can confirm air is deffinetly getting up to pressure in the upper area of the green segment on the gauge. If you have any other suggestions they would be greatly appreciated :)

    Heidelberg QM46-1 Error 15-01

    I'll take a look this morning however I have watched the gauge going into the green area it seems to have to get up to pressure before I can attempt to switch on blowers. I also think error 11-05 appears when not up to pressure but disappears when the gauge reaches the green area

    Hi, We are having problems with a press we've just purchased, any help would be greatly appreciated. SF 56 brings up error code: 15-01 All guards seem to be closed and the switch can be heard clicking once closed, no lights are illuminated on the SVK2 board. I'm lost, as the press was...

    Is there a successor to the HP 5100?

    We always ran our plates through a HP5000 until it eventually died. We were kind of stuck so decided to put a plate through our Xerox DC12 which achieved very pleasing results (so we never replaced the HP). We've been running polyester plates for years without any issue and because of the heat...
