Ajax ,fagor 8055 mill driver error
Morning all,
We have a Ajax cnc mill with Fagor 8055 control, it has been stood idle (operator holiday) for 6 days and on switching on today has come up with an "external emergency activated" PLC:0005 AXIS DRIVER NOT OK, anyone have experience of this error or any suggestions on a fix. I am old school manual so sorry about my ignorance.
cheers for any help offered.

Your system has an emergency stop circuit also known as e-string, it is a line that goes from the 24 volts power supply to the e-stop push button(s), end of stroke limit switches and some other devices, like the axis drives. If any of your drives has a problem, the alarm will pop up. Take a look inside the electric cabinet, there should be several grey modules there, they are the X, Y, Z and spindle drives.
At least one of them should have a red light or similar indicating a problem, perhaps a single fuse.

To be more specific, here's what the manual says:
Cause: PLC input 1 is set to "0" (maybe the E-stop button) or the plc mark M5000(/EMERGEN) is set to "0".
Solution: Check at the plc why the inputs are at "0". (Possible lack of power).
It means you might have to release the E-Stop button from being depressed or if it is ok than you could have a lack of power in the plc's inputs.
