HAAS

[heavymetal]

We have a 2004 horizontal HAAS EC-300, in an effort to make our machines "safer to operate" our safety guy is wanting to remove the option to override the door safety. Since doing so when the program gets to G00 G54 G90 X-7.65 Y31. A0. the machine stops with a "door hold" message, not door open. It says door open when the door is actually open and trying to run the machine. I have noticed that if i remove the "A" movement from the line it runs, put it back in it says "door hold".

It also shows an "A un-clamp" message along with the "door hold" message.

So what is the difference between door hold and door open?

TIA

I think you are going to have to go to HAAS with this one is my thoughts. That old of a machine and some things have changed they would be the best ones to ask.

My thoughts also.

Door hold May mean that the button was pushed and it's waiting for the signals to stop before it unlocks it but that's just a guess

I would ask him how he disable it maybe it can be reversed

i'm confused as to what you are saying.

 so you are getting trouble simply be getting into settings and deactivating the door hold override?

"door hold" means the machine thinks the door is open and the override setting is in the boot-up (not overridden) condition. This would be a service call to tweak the interlocks.

 If it is happening only in a specific part of the program I would defer to Haas

The machine has been running with the door over ride on for years and now the "safety guy" wants it turned off so the machine won't run when the door is open. I don't know the history of the machine or how many years it has been running with the over ride on. I tried to call HAAS technical support but no one answered, have to leave a message.

Also tried moving A with MDI still same message.

Check the setup key, I know that can mess with the some of the interlocks. Also could look on the I/O screen and see if it thinks the  door is open. Though with the setting turned off it should not matter

on our 2004 VMC setting 51 is for the door lock on and off but it resets when you power off.
