I was using my EBC for the first time and well, I must be doing something wrong. I put the board into the carrier, raised the board up an 1/8 of an inch, and put the carrier into the CW. I lined up the black marks (the center most ones) with the sensor, and lowered the carrier so that the rollers just touched. Followed the directions after it asked to load board and when it came time for the carrier to go through and measure the board, the carrier moved through and I got this message. "Measuring Board Clear Board Sensor". I hit enter again and got the same message. When I hit stop I got a "Edge detection failed".
What did I do wrong?
Did you lower the head just enough to change the display from "Load Board" to "Press Enter"? The idea is to lower the head just until the roller switches click.

Yes, It went from load board to "enter?' I hit enter and the carrier moved through one way and displayed the "Measuring Board Clear board sensor"
Was the board under both rollers when you lowered the head?
I have to say I'm not sure.
Also listen to hear both roller switches click. (Nearly at the same time is good.)
I'll go out to the shop and try it again.
It's carving!
Before trying it again I moved my project board more towards the front of the carrier, so that when lining up with the board sensor I was sure to have the board under both rollers. Don't know if that was what made the difference or not but that's all I changed and it's working now.
I think that was it. From the picture, it looks like the board was back too far.
