Anyone change a cutter Main Board?

[Wild Hare]

Static electricity shocked me and fried the Main Board of my Graphtec/Q100 cutter. I'm thinking I can change it myself, but would like to hear from anyone who has done this before. Do you have to re-calibrate the cutter? It has the ARMS sensor.

Yes, you need to Enable and re-calibrate the arms, it should only take 10 minutes to do it.

Ditto. If you need help with this, please call or email our support department: http://signwarehouse.com/support/

Good luck,

Does it have a reset nvram menu selection?

I didn't see anything like that, but I did Disable Pinch Roller sensor in background settings to at least get it to where i can use all three now. i would still like to get it back to how it should be though.

Does anyone know how to do this? I need to do this to my q130 after replacing main board

I just needed mine replaced and brought it to Low Cal. There's a guy in Fullerton doing repairs for $200 plus parts. Seemed more than fair to me.

And the winner is.....thank you. wasn't in the menu, but had to do a dip switch reset on main board....can't wait to see the bill from sw on the tech support on this one! May have been better off paying the $200 mentioned above!
