Correct. I just assumed cause you had a S in there right after it, it would use that. so theoretically you could put a W1.0 G50 S3000 on the same line and it would grid shift as well as set the rpm limit. ?

cool glad you figured it out. I saw the g50 in there on the tool line last night but figured it didnt have a "U" or "W" number so figured that wouldnt cause a problem. my t10 citizen I use U and W all the time fpr grid shift on different tool holders

Bill I havent used g28s in my lathes in a very long time, so it was a guess. That being said heres my code for a 1988 knc Miyano with a fanuc o (very early)

isnt there suppose to be a g91 in there on the g28 line?

yeah I guess if you like lugging a lap top around. ;) and a power cord if need be. this one gets its power through the rs232 port so thats a plus. I have 6 old lap tops and 10 old pcs with serial ports on them for spares. personally I just go into the office and send the programs through my...

I'm trying to figure out how your going to machine it with a 30" 2" dia boring bar. wouldnt it flex to much? or would you make a reverse box tool so to speak with bearings?

$31 each wow. I dont think I ever checked the price. I know the techniques I ordered begining of year were under 20 each I wanna say 17 and change

I believe thats true and false. meaning it depends on how and why type of finish you have on a thread you use to make the torque specification. I used to work at a place that specialized in threading, the owner wrote and developed alot of those torque standards . this discussion was brought up...

I think it would work great for a comparator vice, would save on using clay or Playdoh ;)

normally when your running 5c or 16c, even 20c you dont need the silicon, if your boring it helps a ton. if your using a true dead length set-up its almost a must . only because of the way the collet squeezes which is opposite than a normal collet. Also I am assuming he was talking about using...

very good point, now that he doesnt have the error msg anymore. I forgot about that during the dos days even the early window days like 3.1.1 you had to change settings to match your settings or higher (baud) as the dos com programs worked off most PC default settings.

Chad can you make one? I have an older f12 the cylinder should be the same I can get the numbers off if need be. if you have the schematics for your machine you should be able to get part numbers and where to hook up. other than that ebay from time to time has parts and that Place in colorado...

also this does almost everything a calmotion set up does. https://machinistboard.com/index.php?threads/rs232-transfer-box-for-cnc-machine.347/

Ive been there done that, it can be frustrating. but your overlooking something. your stuck on something in your head and just over looking it. it happens. Personally if I was in your situation.(and have been) I would dump all your cables go get some rj45 jacks and some internet cable make the...

alphonso Smartcamcnc used to have a program called editplus and communicate. it worked in dos and windows up to and including version 7pro. I still have it form the early dos days and used it every day, until 2 years ago when I went with DNC4U which is well worth it but thats another topic...

Just wondering if one of his pins is not making contact, got pushed back or bent? its happened before

dnc titan box this thing is pretty bad ass. a buddy of mine bought one and asked me to set it all up for him. figured it would be a slam dunk. it wasnt. got pretty fustrated with it thinking it was junk. I put it on the citizen with the t10 control, as my laptop sends and receives the programs...

some machines do that but generally its how its set-up as well as the cables my t10 does that but my fadal and OT early model and yasnak dont. I do run x on and off, and CTS etc etc. That being said I dont get funny charators send to the machine but recieveing I do get a few worse on some then...

I use what ever I have, from car stuff/rtv to window caulking , doesnt take that much time, if you plan ahead it will be dry before your set-up is done. its really important to use in dead length collet chucks , due to there multi piece design and the pull to open. chips get caught in them...

Baud rate mismatch generally wont give you errors, and some machines dont really care about baud rate mismatch, it will still send the program but you generally have to open it in a pc with a txt editor to see it. what does give you machine errors is the bits and stuff ie 7,2 even or what ever...
