I have scanned in a block diagram, and a hard-to-read servo-amp diagram
from the tape-O-matic. They are available at the metal working dropbox
for RCM. http://www.metalworking.com/dropbox The files are named
servoamp.gif, and taperomat.gif as well as a text file that says what
this one does. I built the phase checker with the cap and light bulbs
that Ivan posted, and it worked great. I hooked up the tape-O-matic
(TOM) and flipped the start switch. so far, so good... I got a tape
fault, and a '+' on the display. I cleared the fault, and.... nothing. I
can clamp and release the spindle, but thats as far as it goes. I was
not able to jog any axis, or even enter a command into the machine.
Sooo, now begins the path to EMC conversion.
The X and Y axis have Reliance 457665-MV 3/4 hp motors, type TR with 6
wires. They are 120V, with a 6.0 amp rating on ____, and a 0.65 amp
field rating.
The spindle I haven't dug into yet. If anyone can actually read any of
the block diagrams I posted, I'll post more, but I may have to get
better at the process. The originals are OK to read, but are tan/brown
with age, and don't scan or copy well at all. The fact that they were
shrunk to 8 1/2" x 11" before scanning doesn't help either.
