    Troubleshoot DNC

    I'm trying drip feed to a Lagunamatic 3 axis mill with a desktop PC. I have the serial connection hooked up. Mastercam is sending the programs, but the controller says it doesn't have communication. It's a Dynapath controller. Any tips?

    Cable is good. Pinout is right. The controller is ready. I think it might be settings in the PC, but everything seems to be right. I'm stuck.....
