Topic: Issues with 1 out of 3 DX-32s
|
| By: Guest | Posted on: Dec 22 2016 at 06:30:48 PM | We have three Bridgeport DX-32s here. I've been able to successfully transfer files over the serial port in two of the three machines, but the third one is being stubborn. Nothing I do seems to get me anywhere.
Does anyone know if there is a parameter I have to setup to get transferring using RS232 to work?
I stuck a tester on the port, and the lights turn on the same on all three machines. I've tried swapping cables between each machine. Not sure what's up. | |

When you try to load a program what happens? Does the cnc show an alarm? | |

But everything is setup the same from what I can tell. When I try to send a file over, nothing happens on that machine. It just continues to wait. | |

So, put the dnc computer into receive mode. Send a file from cnc to computer. Does anything appear on the computer display? | |
