Melco emc6 help

Ive replaced the Entire sewing head of my melco emc 6 black head. But I can't get it to do a "head up" and I keep getting an error message "z timeout error." As the machine starts up, the cilinoid fires once and the head response as well but after that I cannot get any response from it, I tried head timing menu function and z timeout error continues to show I have also tried the function without the needle head on and off and no luck. Does any one have any suggestions?

Thanks

I HAVE A MELCO MACHINE EMC1 BUT I DO NOT HAVE HOW TO SPEND IT, NOT IF ANYONE COULD HELP ME

Ramon, not sure what you are asking.
You don't know how to ? it? (Thread it? Start it? Sell it?) Somewhere there is a translation problem.

My machine is doing the same thing! Did you get yours fixed? What was the problem?

Have you tried getting it up manually? I have had that happen and I used a flat head screw driver and turn the area on the right side of the head that allows you to manually change the color position. Sometimes that will trigger it to head up or it will release it and then try the head timing menu function.
Hope that is of help.
BJ

I bought 2 of the single head tajima machines but I don't have a manual I did get them communicating with my computer and I have design shop 7 but I don't know how to thread this machine. It's different than the white head melco. Any help would be appreciated greatly
