Camm-1 CX-24 Sensor Error?
Hi Guys
Wonder if anyone has come across this before and could help how to fix it
When I power up my Camm-1 cx-24 the plotter moves about an inch to the left then comes up sensor error.
Can’t for the life of me figure out how to fix it
Thanks in advance

Well if it is a sensor error you need to locate the problem sensor & replace it, you may find you can get away with either just cleaning it or if that doesn’t work try disconnecting it altogether, if you disconnect it & get the machine cutting you would still be better off replacing the sensor in the long run but it may at least get you working again while you wait for spares.

Thanks, its pretty simple disconnecting the front sensor but not so much the back one
Any clues? lol 😳
-
Are you sure it’s the back one which I am guessing is media end. Could well be one of the sensors for measuring the width of the vinyl, sorry never owned a Roland plotter so not sure how to dismantle it without seeing it.

Now I am getting a bad position error
Im not having much luck today
-
Nevermind fixed the bad positon, gonna try and cut and see how we go thanks for you help!
-
Everything seems to be working now apart from the arm that holds the blade won;t lower to cut the vinyl :s
-
Does the holder move up & down freely by hand with no power on the machine? If it’ then it could just need cleaning.
-
Yes I can press the holder down no problem just will not move when cutting
-
The errors you describe I used to get when the sun hit the sensors. Hadn’t happened since I moved units, until one day I opened the blind behind the machine. I knew what it was, closed the blind, not had an issue since!
Hope this helps, before you dismantle the cutter!

Thanks for the reply, it looks like a wire had come loose in transit and was causing a couple of problems for me.
Took the front off to pushed it back in and it seems to be working well
