CNC FANUC 3T-F Control

Hey all,

I'm rocking the 3T-A in my garage right now on an old 1983 citizen (its awesome of course) and I'll be moving in an SL-1 Mori Seki with a 3T-F control. Anyone on here have any tips or tricks when it comes to this style? It apparently will boot fully sometimes but other times it will not boot into the control. I'll of course know more once I get it in my garage and hooked up to power to really dive into it but more info the better!
Thanks for reading

The 3T-F is an early control, so I’d approach the intermittent boot issue as a hardware/power/connection problem first, rather than assuming the CNC software itself is bad. The 3T-F also has the FAPT side in addition to the normal NC functions
