What is a fence on a cnc router?

Post by Gavin Armstrong »

Hello I have the following error when running in manual mode with my c53 router.

"Fence closed in manual mode - All axes inhibited by plc ( Input 17 open )"

Input 17 on the plc has no light illumantated on the board so the pin is currently open. Is it possible to force the pin closed with a jumper wire to get the machine working?

Many thanks

Gav

Problem now solved, safety wire for the fence had been cut during transport.
