Re: RS232 cable
Sorry we are out of stock of those cables as we now use USB cables. Check this link out for the DENFORD MACHINE LINK CABLE

Here is the diagram of pin connections that I use for my RS232 cable, it is used on Denford Cyclone lathes with Fanuc OTB and OTC controls, also the same cable is used on a Bridgeport VMC with Fanuc OM - Mate control and I have no problems whatsoever using it with a USB to Serial adapter to an IBM Laptop and an IBM PC
All settings on the DNC and the PC Comm Port should be set to the "Hardware" settings for best results!!
Everything shown below works on all Fanuc O (T or M) controls I have ever used.

Re: RS232 cable
Great stuff many thanks guys ill give this a go.
Will this run a Triac also by any chance?
Will this be ok to use on a laptop with XP or will i need windows 98 or another to upload and download programs?
How would i go about uploading and downloading programs to and from the mahcine also?
Think this just about covers my questions for now
cheers

Re: RS232 cable
Others on here have used the industrial text editor to upload programs to their machine.
By the way, we're guessing the cable you are looking for is to upload programs (DNC) to a Fanuc control, not the one to connect and control a denford type machine ?

Re: RS232 cable
You can edit your Code in whatever DNC software you use for uploading/downloading, also Notepad, Wordpad or even MS Word, the code is output from whatever CadCAM software you are using as a simple .TXT file, usually a .NC extension.jaycnc wrote:Yes,one machine is a triac on fanuc OM and the other is the cyclone on Fanuc OTb.Denford Admin wrote:Others on here have used the industrial text editor to upload programs to their machine.
