If this alarm occurs when CNC power supply is turned on or when
this alarm can not be cleared even if CNC is reset, turn off the power
supply also turn off the power supply in spindle side.
750 SPINDLE SERIAL LINK START This alarm is generated when the spindle control unit is not ready for
FAULT starting correctly when the power is turned on in the system with the
