Machine Protected, Work Paused

Post by robbiesands »

I've been using my Mars-130 for a few years now with no issues, however a new problem popped up last week and I can't figure out the cause.

When starting a new job using RD Works, the machine air protect comes on as usual but the machine won't start the job, beeping then reading

Code: Select all

"Machine Protected, Work Paused"
I've checked the water cooler is running, lid is closed, air assist is on... Last week I had the same issue and hit the reset button on the machine and was able to start the job, however I tried the same this week but can't get past the error message.

Any suggestions on diagnosing & fixing the problem?

I've done some more testing and I think the lid open sensor may be dead, tried triggering it with a magnet but no response. Any possibility to replace it?
