Emcotronic M1 owner here too. smoregrava has been a lot of help to me on the F1P I have.

Hi after my computer crashed I needed to make a new cabel to the machine to fit a DB9 COM port. So I made a litte drawing for the cable Have tested it an I works all rigth. Unfortunally no progress to the drip feed or expanded memory. So I have to divide my programs if they are to big

You could also see some pictures of parts I have machined on my emco F1P Machine on the site www.smoregrava.net/cnc.htm

Hi Smoregrava! I need some help with my F1P! I cant get the hyper Terminal to work! The first problem i have is that my computer does not have a com port so I have to use a usb to serial i don't know if this work? The next problem is the setup for hyper terminal?
I have a NC code and i convert it to text and copy the text in to hyper but it does not work can you tell me how to do it. Normally i get alarm 60 or 62 in the maskin so some connection it has. I have made the cable like you describe in your page. If you can tell me from beginning how you do it i will be happy thanks in advance.

Hi I have had problems with USB to Serial converters. It's no problem reciving data to the computer but durin sending the voltage is a little low for F1P If any one have good experience with this it would be nice to know the make of that converter.

Alarm 62 Means that your code is not rigth. So you migth have typed something worng. Post a code example you are using an I could have a look and see if I could se anything. But If I remember rigth all the code to the Alarm62 appears would appear in your program so it would be possible to se where the error is
