Good afternoon guys. I was running a slightly older CNC lathe, 2002 with fanuc 21i-T controller. In using the manual guide portion of it.
Turning and boring was fine, until I came to the part off part of my program. Machine alarmed and the message said change gears. I realized when I was programming, that I left the gear to auto.
So I hit reset, and went into the parameters to change it to stay in high gear. Well I guess I shouldn't have hit reset, because now I'm getting the error that gear is not in mesh. Is there an easy fix for this besides opening up the headstock and poking around?
