Need Help!- hitachi seiki VS50 pc card pcmcia problem

[Rocket_Col]

Hi all, looking for some help on pc card/pcmcia.
The machine has a Fanuc 18M control with the SEICOS software front end.
I run a lot of programs that are point to point and drip feed progs via the rs232 but baud rate only goes to 9600 so cannot keep up and ends up bouncing,
I want to use the pc card slot and have formated it on machine by using "turn on holding keys F10/F11) this worked ok and backed off the system data (2 files on card) So I know machine is seeing card and can write to it.
But change to I/O screen and set card in slot, nothing happens. control does not see it (book says F10 should change to (pccard inout) but nothing.
It may be a parameter that wants changing, think it may be one of the ones from PRM100 - 200.
Any ideas guys?
Thanks
Colin

Thats ok with a fanuc front end, this is an hitachi Seiki front end, you set to "card" on the I/O screen and it should read it (according to manual) Ho hum will just have to carry on drip feeding.
