45A [2], 60A [3], and 90A [4]. All four operate the same way. Smart Amplifier assemblies are powered from the 320 VDC Bus from the Vector Drive assembly or Minimill Power Supply. They each have a red LED FAULT light, and a green LED POWER ON light to show the status of the amplifier.
Danger: Before beginning any work inside the control cabinet the High Voltage indicator light on the 320V Power Supply / Vector Dr seconds. Some service procedures can be dangerous or life-threatening. DO NOT attempt a procedure that you do not fully understand. If you ha contact your Haas Factory Outlet (HFO) and schedule a service visit. Electrical Diagram Symptom Table...

Servo Amplifier - Troubleshooting Guide Servo Motor Short Circuit Inspection Corrective Action: Check the cables for a short: Make sure the axis servo motor cables are not contaminated or pinched. Contaminated or pinched cables can cause a short. Replace the cables if necessary. Inspect the servo motor.
Corrective Action: Note: The maximum temperature for safe operation of Haas CNC machines is 122 °F (50 °C). The amplifier over temperature sensor will trigger at 195 °F (90 °C). Make sure the cooling fan for the servo amplifiers operates correctly.
