Heidenhain TNC 151 Controller wont finish start cycle any ideas

Sep 21, 2014 2 Replies

We have an old Bridgeport Interact with a Heidenhain TNC 151 Controller. It has not been run in a few years. I wanted to do a canned cycle today but it will not finish the boot cycle. It finishes the memory test then show power interrupt. So I push the CE and the Pass over z - reference mark, Pass over y - reference mark, Pass over x - reference mark, axes show up on the screen and this is were I am hung up. I can not do anything from here. Any idea? Thank you so much

You do understand that the original post was from 2 1/2 years ago, don't you? It would make quite a story if the guy was still waiting after all this time for his controller to boot.
