Novamill Not Connecting

Post by boots » Thu 08 Mar , 2007 20:20 pm

Installed a new Denstep Control card in a July 2000 Novamill & upgraded to VR Milling v5.
Selected Novamill Denstep from Legacy Machines menu. Keep getting RS232 Error when trying to connect. Using the same cables as before upgrades, Lindy RS232 cable (9 pin to 25) to Fanuc 25pin-25pin cable.
There's a red 8 on the LED Display. All fuses look/check good.
Went thru your posts on RS232 errors.
What am I missing?
