Hey Al
See therein lies the problem. There's eight different machine with eight different Fanuc controllers 3T,3TF,21T, 518MSC & O-MATE. I'm trying to follow up on somebodies elses work who has now left the company without writing anything down. I have a RS-232 cable and have been lead to believe that uploading and downloading work to a certain extend.
But some lines/spaces/decimal places were sometime left out and from what i'd read on transfering files this may be a wiring problem???
The cable is 25pin connect to a 9 pin. On the 25 pin the 6-8-20 & 4-5 are jumped with only 2, 3 and 7 used on the 25 pin conecting to the 2,3 and 5 on the 9 pin.
Are these the standard wiring.
Are all Fanuc control transfer setting (4800baud, 7data,2stop, even, Xon/Xoff)
What is the benefit of jumping the 1,4 and 6 on the 9 pin???
Read through alot of manuals/instructions recently and all the techno jargen has my head swimming....
Thanks in advance
