I have an older makino vmc 1986 fnc74. Right now i can send files to and from
controll with no problem. I would like to know if there is a way to run in drip feed mode. It does have a tape reader but I dont know what settings to use or if i need to change any parameters or not. I set switch to tape mode and send a file but it does not read anything from pc , do I need new hardware or what.
Our newer machines have a remote start button. Any info would be great.

Thanks, Ken
