Hi! First time post. I'm getting an E-2 error on an ABDick 9995. The Electrical Service Manual says this is a poor encoder z phase input. The machine jogs fine and doesn't cause an error. When pressing the start button (at any speed) the machine will crawl - slower than the normal jog - for a few inches and then give the error. Pressing the stop button clears the error. Continually starting the machine at the slow jog and clearing the error will eventually get the machine running.
I've tried doing the timing procedure where you put the machine in service mode, put the timing wheel on 0 deg and loosen the encoder and adjust until the buzzer goes off. This doesn't make a difference.
I've taken the motor off and had it serviced (they just replaced the bearings). They said it looked fine.
The incoming voltage to the inverter is 208. The voltages coming off sp + and sp - match the book. There is a 0.08 volt drop when measuring from sp + & - to the inverter wires 2 and 5. Not sure if this is anything or not.
I'm not sure why it eventually starts working. Any ideas of what to check?
Thanks,
Mike Wallace
