Hurco KM5P Max 32/DSP I replaced a dead 4.5 v memory battery on the board but when I start machine it wants me to choose hard drive type? I realize that probably all memory went away so thats why it wants me to choose settings. I do not know the previous settings and I do not have any floppy drives. Is there a way to check history of settings ? And if so, How do you go in and check previous settings Thanks in advance Ron
Did you ever figure out the hard drive setup? I'm having a similar problem with my Hurco BMC-20.
yes It works now, I had a dead memory battery and it came up with a different page on start up , i entered the new numbers and it took off and runs. I'm not the expert but I will try to help. Thanks RonQuote:

I think I have a dead memory battery as the board seems to lose setting info after a few days of non-operation.
Thanks,

Here is what I put in and it loaded and ran , after I bought a battery pack that held regular batteries and plugged back into board, air pressure good , started machine and it came up to that page for settings, I have Rev 1.64 entered following hard drive type 48, #cylinders 1024, heads 16 precomp 0, landing zone 0, # SECTORS 50, capacity 400 , RAM CONFIGURATION 4 mb, entered , restart worked, homed xyz , now able to jog , hope this helps out . I did not load and floppy drive to bring back any settings RondalQuote:

Thanks, Ron, for the information. Can't hurt to try your setting, so I'll try Type 48 and see what happens.
