OmniTurn G4 CNC: Won’t Boot

This page is for boot-up errors displayed on screen:

If there is no display on monitor and no yellow "Control ON" lamp, click here to troubleshoot power issues.

Error message on screen:

• Verifying DMI Pool Data
• This could indicate a bad hard drive, a main memory problem, or a CMOS memory problem.
• If it’s a CMOS memory problem, sometimes just changing anything in CMOS can clear the issue.
  Try this: turn the control off, then back on. As soon as you turn it back on, press and hold the Del key. This should get you into the CMOS setting program. Once there, navigate to the date / time, and change the time, then press Esc, then F10 to save and exit.
• If the computer gets past the DMI Pool Data screen after reboot, you’ve fixed the problem. If not, it could be something else; email service@omniturn.com for advice.

• During bootup or after editing a program, the control drops to DOS and screen reads: "Error 62 at pgm ctr ..."
• CMOS or BIOS error with Press Esc to continue or Press F1 to enter CMOS
• Cannot load DOS
• Starting DOS

No Error message on screen:

• Goes partly through boot-up, then blinking cursor
• This could indicate a bad hard drive. You can boot from the thumb drive that came with your CNC, but you must first change the "boot sequence" to boot off that drive.
