Hi,

This machine is a Denford MicroMill supplied through AES.

The unit shown is fitted with a Denstep control card and the 5 is normal.

The external rs232 cable is a standard RS232 cable.

Do you have the software that was supplied with the machine? If so you will have a Licence key disc.

If you have this disc you can download the final version of VR Milling 2 from our website and install this.

Just a final question. In the second photo you show the control card. There is an EPROM fitted to this board. Can you let us know the version number on the EPROM?

THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.
TOM
