UPDATE: I just rolled material out and it squeaked then too. It's more like a creak, like an old rusty door opening.

My VJ just started making a rather uncomfortable squeak/grind when it's backrolling the material initially. That check when it scoots the material in then out. Not while it's rolling material out, just that backroll. Is there any way to lubricate these things that I don't know of? Thanks!! Ian

Ok, anyone else have a suggestion here? Any FLEXI experts??

Wow... useless piece of crap Flexi is at times. So helpful and so powerful but somebody... one of the desk monkey coders... was asleep at the wheel. So frustrating to have a simple command NOT WORK. Morons.

Cannot figure out how to get the incredibly useless "transform with object" off of my created gradients. Can't do it... anyone have a suggestion? ... yes, I uncheck the box. It back on as soon as I open the advanced tab again. I've saved them as new names, opened and re-opened, tried in a new...

Chris at GRS got back to me... they're finding a board for me... as I'm not known for my patience I don't know that I'd be able to recalibrate it correctly after a board switch and not willing to take the chance of screwing up a $700 part. I feel better being able to narrow it down... I don't...

Thanks Bobby!! Anyone know how much a main board could cost or am I SOL because it's now a legacy?

Well the birdy pulled out his meter and tested the output. 39.9 V with the main board's lead disconnected... it clicks off too quickly to get a reading while the lead is plugged in. Is there nothing in the power stream that could have gone bad OTHER than the entire main board??

So a little birdy told me to test the power supply output for 40V and if it's there it's the main board. Any advice on that? Any experience? You'd think the FC was an unusual plotter or somethin!?!?

Ok, so does this mean anything? I pulled the covers, unplugged the main power lead for the main board from the power supply and it offers a very soft click when I flip the switch on and the normal hard click when I switch it off. No cycling or breaker trip. Pointing towards main board or am I...

I was hoping it wasn't... yeah I guess you're right. Have you seen many of these go? I bought it new four years ago. I can't be down, I'm a small shop with one cutter. Have to figure out a way to get her up and running here.

Ok, so here's the thing. She's a little long in the tooth but today mid-cut she shut down. Motors stopped, display shut off and now cycles every 10 seconds or so and tries to re-power. I'm assuming it's a power supply because the display flashes on and then off with a noticeable click. Repeated...

Went thru everything with my tech.... even updated the firmware. Looks like this must be the nut behind the desk again that I'll have to adjust.

I went through every single MENU option, every one. There is no option for setting "lazer" levels that I could find. Could you possibly step-by-step me to get to those? Bob, in the interim I'm going to give the flashlight trick a try!!! Next step is going to be the vendor where I got it for...

You deal with it all the time? I'm used to getting the mis-read occasionally.... not like this though. Is there a way to clean the registration laser lens? Could that be an issue?

My FC7000MK2-130 is having issues recognizing registration marks. It's happened on the last three runs... I was able to re-run the jobs over and over about ten times each and get it to cut... but now it's refusing to recognize any one of the four marks on two separate jobs. Sometimes it won't...

... and this becomes apparent from time to time. I've been dealing with random (?) crashes and issues like this for years now without taking the time to inspect the reasons. Let me ask this. Does ANYONE know how to actually reduce points in a vector in flexi? I know there's a tool for it...

even though he said he wants blue lettering... like maniac said try white lettering with a blue stroke. (ADDED* careful of the white stroke... at a distance all the eye sees is the contrasting stroke, NOT the letter... when using a stroke I stick to a color closer to the background...) I'm sure...

Thank you very much, Fred!
