Hello, has anybody had any luck connecting to a DYN2 drive with a non-DMM USB to TTL cable?
My genuine DMM communication cable is broken, and the non-DMM converters are much cheaper.
I have purchased one of these, but haven't had any luck connecting through DMM servo software. https://core-electronics.com.au/usb-...-pl2303hx.html
If someone has had luck getting this to work, or knows of what settings are required in windows device manager, that would be much appreciated!
How old are your drives as this cable changed??Quote:

The drive is a DYN2-TLA6S-00, bought in 2017. The cable serial number is:
CA-MTUSB-FR1
ED-1 0117A
AC2 82901
The cable you have should work but you would need the plug for the drive to be wired correct, you can get a new cable from DMM or try and make the one you have work here is a video on how to use the cable once you have a com port connectionQuote:

I said that cable should work, it may not match the converter that DMM is using in their cable that is why their cable costs more, the converter will be to suit their drive commutation so is a custom made cableQuote:
