Hello Again
Was trying the ConnectCNC program on evaluation???
There's a copy of terminal on the laptap i'm going to use for up/downloading too.
So basically the jumped pins are to facilitate software handshaking, and this happens by having pin 1,4,6 in 9 Pin sockect and 6,8,20 on the 25 pin connect to themselves on either end, and nothing else, or 1,4,6 connect to 6,8 & 20???
Heads gone swimming again abit....
Matter of interest does hardware handshaking happen if theses aren't jumped, or is it only on certain machines.
Was trying program transfer with connectCNC on Bridgeport 316 with O-mate controls and download from machine no problem but won't unload, alarmed out #087 "input is not interrupted after 10 characters read".... Thats handshaking right???
