You may also convert LAN to RS232 at the machine You will need a LAN to serial converter they work very well.
There are many variables here like machine options, IT Department and weather you are going to use a DNC system or not.
If done properly the operator will not need to load program from the CNC...

Most of the available DNC software and CNC monitoring software can do what you ask. The offsets may be another thing not all will be able to do this for you.
Let me ask you this do you send files to the machines using Windows networking or a FTP client?
All you need to do is program the scanner with the commands needed to get the file and a simple FTP server or maybe a FTP client depending on which way you will be going i.e. pushing or pulling the...
Most DNC software is designed to be used with serial communications RS232. You will need a custom setup not a off the shelf DNC software.
Based on what you told me you are using LAN all you need is A FTP server software and install it on your server if you don't have a server you can install it on any PC. You should be able to connect...
If your doing it LAN based you don't need DNC software

pin 7 to pin 7
sorry
Make them as needed
And good thing it's not a green screen I have had lots of RS232 issues with them. :)
Also when you get your cable up try punching a program out from the machine first and tell me what you get.
When you punch to the PC does the data look good any extra lines or funny looking data?
25 pin machine 25 pin PC
2 to 3
3 to 2
4 ...
TT: also works depending on the year CTS&RTS are not always on pin 4&5
First you cant use a straight though cable you need a NULL modem cable or adapter if it is 25 to 25 pin you can also make your own I could give you the pin outs if your going to make it. is this a 25...
What year is the machine? green text on the control? you could try PIP read CN0: no file name what do you get?
check and see if the software has a terminal mode than you can see the data output but it will be buffered in the machine
Could you tell us a little more like cable config pin outs and software your using for communications I think the alarm is a DR off alarm (data set ready) I don't have a book with me but it will be...
