    You are probably better off to use a 3 wire cable with the handshake jumpered out at each end.

    Has anyone figured out why I also am getting the “Line is busy” error. What does that really mean?

    Used Hitachi Seiki CNC Lathe HITEC TURN 40G with SEICOS L3 controller

    5000~5199 parameters are set properly and there seems to be no conflicts with port numbers and/or device IDs.
    I have tried virtually every combination. I am stumped

    Thank you anyone.
