Find the circuit diagrams for your machine showing how the control frame computer connects to the generator and gets feedback from it on when there is a short between wire and workpiece then work back from them?
Henk has done the axis/wire feed interfacing already, but doesnt have a original generator to work with.

Did you ever get your machine working? My three A280s are now all dead and I am now faced with an immidiate decision whether to tackle a retrofit project.or invest in a different machine.

Hello, good morning. I'm from Argentina.
I own a Sodick A320D, and unfortunately, it's down due to a broken computer (NEC 9801UF).
Could you help me with anything?
Thank you very much.

I would be glad to help, but everything I have is for A280. I have some wire diagrams and general manuals. All of my machines have quit not only with NEC9810 problems but the main machinie computer has also failed. I have been trying to do a LinuxCNC control retrofit with EtherCat but that isn't going well due to the EtherCat - motors don't move and nobody seems to know why.

Maybe switching to stepper motors would be the best option.
I'm no expert on the subject.
