I have an Okuma MC-4VB CNC with OSP5000M-G control, I have connected it to the DNC through the RS232 port, I can transmit (Pressing the virtual PID key, then READ CN0 and then the real WRITE key) the program to the machine's memory, but I can't get it to transmit directly (without being recorded in the machine's memory), can you help me by guiding me on how to do it? Since if the program has several lines it does not fit in the memory.

I really appreciate your help

Which method do you use... PIP or DNC ?

PIP is the basic method, supplied with the machine. NOT capable with "drip feeding" a program.

DNC is an add-on & CAN "drip feed" a program directly from a PC. Very big $$$ to fit the option on an older machine, parts may not be available.

Others may chip in for alternatives

Hi Kurmay, can you help me?

Don't mean to hijack the thread, but i have the same issue for a Okuma lathe LB15 OSP 5000L we just acquired.
Problem we are getting
rs232c device read error ffffff when trying to send and receive a file.


So i suppose start with the cable.
Any ideas what the pin out for the cable should look like ?
I have noticed there are different setups.

The one i tried i made my self


DB25(LATHE) ---------------- DB9(PC)

Pin 1 SHIELD
Pin 2 ---------------- Pin 2
Pin3 ----------------- Pin 3
Pin 7 ----------------- Pin 5


4----5
6----20


Does that look about right ????
Any ideas

The cable diagram for the DNC serial port connection is available in the forum.
You can find it if you search.

yes, i know,and i have searched and found lots of information about this but none of it has worked
the problem is that there are different variations
I did read that some had a special cable so that why i posed the question.

Question: Is the OSP 5000L different to the OSP 5000L-G

i found these settings on the net ....

Have you found the solution how to unlock other parametrs? I have the same problem, and I am trying to find any solution....

Hello, I have an Okuma CNC vertical milling machine model MC-4VB with control OSB5000M-G. My problem is the limited memory capacity, and I cannot run muti-line programs. I was told to install the DNC in which I did however, the program doesn't allow me to read programs directly from the DNC, they must go through the machine's limited memory. Can someone help me with what I need to do to get the control to allow me to read the program from the DNC without going through the memory?
