Small TT Trips on Engage With New UniBox

Summary

A new UniBox used to run a Small TT tripped whenever the axis was engaged. The operator tested whether camera sync was the culprit and confirmed the trip still happened with camera sync turned off. The thread did not provide a final fix, so this page preserves the field report and triage path without claiming a solution.

Symptoms

  • New UniBox connected to Small TT.
  • Axis trips immediately when attempting to engage.
  • Turning off camera sync does not clear the trip.

Triage Path

[LIKELY] Separate sync from axis/network causes

2024-10-05 — Josh Ellis-Tufts

  1. Disable camera sync in Setups -> External Camera Setup or the relevant sync / trigger setup screen to confirm whether sync is involved.
  2. If the trip remains, treat it as a UniBox / axis setup / drive connection problem rather than a sync problem.
  3. Check the UniBox in Setups -> Network Setup, then check axis type, motor wiring, and limits in Setups -> Axis Setup before trying repeated engages.
  4. Escalate with the screenshot and UniBox/Small TT configuration if no axis setup mismatch is found.

[5/10/2024, 1:18:23 am] ~ Josh Ellis-Tufts: Has anyone seen this error before? We just got a new Unibox to run our Small TT through however it trips with this error whenever I try to engage the axis. Thought camera sync might have been the culprit but turned that off and still getting the same error. Thanks
