The spindle doesn't rotate.
Has the spindle cover been closed?
To ensure safety, no operation is performed while the spindle
cover is open. Close the spindle cover.
Is a large amount of cutting waste present?
Clean away any cutting waste. Clean especially carefully inside
the spindle cover in particular.
Has a setting been made to keep the spindle from
rotating?
In VPanel, click the [Setup] icon, then click the [Modeling Ma-
chine] tab. Here, select the [Control spindle via commands]
check box.
Abnormal cutting is performed.
Is the command mode correct?
Make sure the appropriate command mode for the program
you're using has been selected. An incorrect command mode
may lead to errors, unintended operation, or no operation.
P. 45 "3-3 Selecting the Command Mode"

Were NC codes sent directly?
In the NC-code mode, be sure to use VPanel's output file list
to output cutting data. Direct transmission from a program,
data-storage device, or the like may lead to errors, unintended
operation, or no operation.
P. 67 "4-4 Starting Cutting (NC-code Mode)"

Have the origin been set at correct location?
Make sure the origin has been set correctly. An incorrect origin
location may result in cutting at an unintended position or an
abnormal cutting-in depth.

Starting Cutting (NC-code Mode)"
The origin is misaligned.
Is the correct workpiece coordinate system se-
lected?
The NC-code mode has six origins, and it is important to verify
which of them you're using. For instance, if the NC program
uses G55, the origins must be set relative to workpiece coor-
dinate system G55.
P. 67 "4-4 Starting Cutting (NC-code Mode)"

Has the EXOFS setting been made?
An effect of EXOFS in the NC-code mode is to shift the origin.
Set EXOFS to zero, then redo the settings for the origins.
How to set EXOFS to zero:
1. In VPanel, click the [Base Point] icon.
2. For [Set Base Point], select [EXOFS].
3. For [Set at next machine coordinate], enter "0" (zero) for X,
Y, and Z, then click [Apply].
For more information, refer to the VPanel Online Help.


The feed rate or spindle speed is wrong.
Has an override been set?
An override changes the rotation or spindle speed. Check the
settings for overrides. Unless you have a special reason for
changing them, leave all overrides set at 100%.
P. 76 "4-6 Overrides"

The entered values for a registered tool have disappeared.
Has the machine been connected to a different
computer?
The values you enter in the VPanel [Register Tool] dialog box
are saved on the computer. The values entered in [Register
Tool] cannot be carried over to a different computer.
