Introduction

This procedure will show you how to replace the I/O PCB on an NGC machine.

Download and fill out the NGC I/O PCB Inspection Report Checklist below before replacing any parts. It can be found at the I/O and TC PCB troubleshooting guide. 

This procedure applies to these kits:

  • 93-32-3490C IO PCB, SIO-C NGC

Machine Compatibility:

  • P/N 93-32-3490C is fully backwards compatible with P/N 93-32-3490B, 93-32-3490A, 93-32‑3480A, 93-32-3480C, and 93-32‑3482C
  • Note: If replacing an earlier version I/O PCB some connectors have changed location. Some cables will need to have more slack pulled from the cable channel or from the enclosure. 
  • You will also need to order a 93-32-5502 Tool Changer CCA kit if the machine is equipped with DC-Motor tool changer or a bar feeder.

Replacement

1

Push [POWER OFF].

Set the main circuit breaker to the OFF position.

Lock the main circuit breaker. Use an approved lock with an approved safety tag.

Caution: When you handle a PCB, you must wear an Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) strap.

2

Record the position of the push-on jumpers [1] on the PCB.

Put an identification label on each cable that is attached to the PCB. This makes the installation easier. Disconnect these cables.

Remove the I/O PCB and place it next to the replacement PCB [2].

Remove the push-on jumpers [1] from the removed PCB and put them onto the replacement PCB [2].

Note: The jumpers shown in the image are at P2, P12, and JP1 on the I/O PCB. Boards can have these as well as other jumpers depending on the options the machine has.

Caution: Carefully compare the two I/O PCBs to make sure you install each jumper in the correct position. If you do not correctly install each of the jumpers, the I/O PCB cannot operate correctly.

3

Note: If the machine is equipped with a tool changer that has a brush motor or bar feeder: Install the (4) standoffs [1] on the I/O PCB. Do not install the Tool Changer PCB until after the I/O is installed.

Install the I/O PCB in the electrical cabinet.

If equipped with a brush motor TC or bar feeder: Mount the 93-32-5502 Tool Changer PCB to the standoffs. Connect wires:

  • Connect cable P/N 33-0413 from J1 [2] on the TC PCB to P74 [3] on the I/O PCB.
  • Connect cable P/N 33-0412 from P55A [4] on the TC PCB to P55 [5] on the I/O PCB.
  • Connect cable P/N 33-0349 from P4 on PSUP PCB to the P55 [7] on the TC PCB.
  • Connect the tool changer/bar feeder cable to P58 [6].
  • For EC models, connect the external resistor at P57 [8].

4

Connect all cables.

Note: If updating from an earlier version I/O PCB some plug locations have changed.

  • The plugs on top of the I/O [1] will need to have slack pulled from the channel. 
  • Rotary axis brakes [2] have moved up on the left side of the I/O, these cables will need to be routed differently. 
  • The coolant and TSC plugs [3] have moved to the bottom of the I/O. Some slack will need to be pulled from the channel or from the enclosure to reach the new location. 
  • P28 [4] for the TSC Vaccum Sensor has moved. Some slack may need to be pulled from the strain relief on the enclosure to reach the new location. 
  • The tool changer output cable moves to P58 and cable 33-0349 to P55A on the Tool Changer PCB.

I/O PCB Connector and Pin Information

As of NGC software version 100.17.000.1016 or higher connector and pin number has been added to the I/O diagnostic tab.  The PCB board name has also been added.  This will help when troubleshooting a machine and trying to figure out which connector and pin number to probe.

The format for the connector and pin numbers are Pmm.nn where mm is the connector number and nn is the pin number.  For example, connector P56 and pin 5 would be represented as P56.5.  In some cases, a given signal may be present on more than one pin or connector.  In this case, they will be separated by a comma.

In addition to providing information on I/O signals, the table now includes rows for things like power and ground pins.

You can also use the search function to search for specific connector numbers.  For example you can search for connector P3 then press the [F1],  this will display all the input and output fuctions of connector P3.

PCB serial number

Note: The PCB's serial number must be included in the inspection report checklist. The serial number is on a sticker [1] on the top of the inspection checklist. 

The serial number will start with two letters, followed by eight digits. Include both the letters and numbers on the inspection report. 

Electrical Safety

 Caution: When you do maintenance or repair on CNC machines and their components, you must always follow basic safety precautions. This decreases the risk of injury and mechanical damage.

  • Set the main circuit breaker to the [OFF] position.

 Danger: Before beginning any work inside the control cabinet the High Voltage indicator light on the 320V Power Supply / Vector Drive must have been off for at least 5 minutes.

Some service procedures can be dangerous or life-threatening. DO NOT attempt a procedure that you do not fully understand. If you have any doubts about doing a procedure contact your Haas Factory Outlet (HFO) and schedule a service visit.

IO PCB LE7 Light

Note: The image above shows the location for LE7 on IO board 34-349C. The position of LE7 can differ based on the version of IO PCB on the machine.

LE7 [1] is one of the lights that come on when the machine is powered up. LE7 has three states that it can be used to troubleshoot potential issues:

LE7 is OFF

  1. This indicates the IO PCB is not receiving power or the software isn't functioning correctly. Check the breakers and make sure the IO board is receiving proper power.

LE7 is Blinking - This can mean several things:

  1. This indicates that the board is not communicating the IO states at the regular rate. It is normal for this to happen when the machine is booting up and also during firmware upgrades. 
  2. Check the serial communication cable going to the Maincon.
  3. LE7 will also be blinking if there is an internal IO PCB alarm (9800 Internal error/shift).
  4. Since LE7 blinks when booting up, if the control screen won't turn on and LE7 is blinking this may indicate that the Maincon is stuck in it's boot process. This doesn't mean that there is an issue with the IO board, but can indicate the state of the machine.

LE7 is On Solid

  1. This is the normal state of LE7 when the machine is powered on and booted up. It indicates the IO is communicating with the Maincon.

 

Lathe I/O PCB Hydraulic Union Safety Device Connection

  1. Push [POWER OFF]. Go to P12 on the I/O PCB, unplug the Hydraulic Union Safety Device adaptor. 
  2. Plug the cable back into P12 making sure its fully seated in the port. Push [POWER ON]. Push [ALARMS]. Push [RESET].
  3. Verify that the EMERGENCY STOP alarm has cleared.

Check IO Performance

Note: The MISC tab can only be seen when a service key is used on the machine.

Enter service mode using the service key.

Press Diagnostics and then going to the MISC tab [1].

Monitor the Total Errors and CRC Errors for both Transmitting (Tx) and Receiving (Rx) [2].

If the number of errors is growing, there is likely electrical noise present in the control cabinet.

Press [E-STOP] to turn off the servo motors. Check if this stops the number of errors from growing. Electrical noise may be produced by the power cables coming from the servo amplifiers located above the IO board.

If the number of errors stops increasing when the servos are off, make sure that all ferrite filters are installed on communication cables and that amplifier power cables coming from the amplifiers and vector drives are properly grounded. 

Make sure there are ferrite filters [1] ground connections [2] and that the exposed shielding is grounded on all amplifiers [3].

Ground Fault Circuit Monitor

On the NGC control there is a ground fault circuit monitor. This circuit monitors the 115V and 230V for a ground fault condition.

  1. For 175 GROUND FAULT alarm. Determine if the alarm is caused by a 115 or 230 VAC component.
  2. Press the [DIAGNOSTIC] button, cursor to the I/O tab.
  3. Type in: "Ground", then press [F1].
  4. Look at the _120VAC/_240VAC_GROUND FAULT analog value. The circuit with the highest value is the one that reported the ground fault.
  5. Test the components that operate in that voltage range, for a short-circuit (see the table below).
  6. The ground fault analog value will drop when the component with the short circuit is disconnected from the machine control.

Components to Check when a Ground Fault Alarm Occurs

 Note: *These devices can be disconnected from the I/O PCB without an alarm being generated.

I/O PCB Low Volt Power Supply

The I/O PCB is equipped with a built in Low Volt Power Supply (LVPS).  This power supply generates 3 DC voltages:  +24V, +15V and +12V [1].

These voltages are used to power low volt circuits on the I/O PCB and also to power external devices like Probes, Axis Brakes, and User Inputs.

There are 3 LEDs that show the presence of these voltages on the I/O PCB. 

  • When the I/O LVPS is working correctly these LED's will glow solid.  
  • When there is a short circuit on the low volt circuits these LED's can begin to flash on and off. 
    • When this happens you will need to find the source of the short circuit, start by disconnecting devices that are being powered by the LVPS like the Probe, Axis Brakes, User Inputs until LED lights begin to remain solid.
  • When the LED's are OFF and the machine is turned on.  The I/O PCB may not be getting the 115VAC Voltage input [2] or the Circuit Breaker for the I/O PCB may have tripped.

PCB Component Inspection

Intermittent alarms or symptoms can be caused by component failure. Below is a list of possible failures:

  1. Missing solder on all or some components pins
  2. Poor solder
  3. Solder bridges
  4. Wrong component installation (orientation)
  5. Missing components

     Note: Some PCB's have unused circuits and are missing components intentionally, look for broken off components.

  6. Broken components
  7. Broken pins on IC's
  8. Bent pins on the connectors

Use a magnifying glass to inspect the circuit components on the front and back of the I/O PCB. Below are the circuit component zones to inspect:

  1. 24 VDC, 160 VDC circuit components (DC motor tool changers, axis brake, probe).
  2. 120 VAC outputs circuit components (solenoids, Wye-Delta, Oil Pump etc.)
  3. 240 VAC outputs circuit components (Coolant, TSC, Auger).
  4. Check the RJ45 connector for loose housing and bent pins.

 Important: If you find a damaged component, replace the I/O PCB, inspect the new I/O PCB circuit components before installing.
