[amayausers] Re: Z axis error

Ron,
Had an episode a long time ago where all the settings in AOS went wacky. Thread 
feed was at some goofy # and material thickness went to 60 something. Turned 
out to be static electricity, got in the Goddess and she went crazy. Shut it 
down, sprayed the red plastic covers and black base cover with static guard. 
Long story short, she was good to go again. May not have much impact 
considering you have a needle down but what the heck, worth a try.

  Hi all,
  Especially any tech types that may be reading.
  My operator just informed me that he had a birdnest issue
  when I got back from the bank. but know the needle (12)
  has dropped down halfway and won't lift up.
  I've tried the emergency stop and I've tried the maintenance
  tab and tried the head up and head down buttons with no avail.

  It clicks and sounds like a solenoid is trying to activate it
  the needle bar, but isn't lifting it.

  Any ideas or is it Call Melco time??

  Suddenly I got a glitch minutes later in another machine.
  We couldn't sew anything, it just streams thread as soon
  as the start button is pushed. Had my operator baffled!
  I looked at all the usuals and didn't see any problems
  until I looked at the computer and noticed the screen was
  knocked out and could see parts of the background in my
  Amaya OS. then I looked at the thread feed. which hadn't
  been adjusted and it was 4357!! talk about feeding thread!!

  Can't adjust it everything is goofy
  so we are shutting down and resetting.
  This computer is a stand alone just for the Amaya OS 
  and runs nothing else and has no network or internet 
  connections.

  Just my lucky day!!
  If anyone has any ideas what to look for  with the needle bars 
  let me know, I am mechanically inclined so I can tear into and
  put back together so I am ready for my challenge.

  Thanks in advance!
