You should have a seperate RS232 port for ISO programs. It should be connected to the FX17 card in the cabinet. If you dont have an FX17 card i dont think you can do ISO comms.

We are currently using ATOP wireless serial servers on our controls. After sending/receiving programs to our T32 controls, control panel will at times lock up (cannot use buttons or keyboard). This...
Solutionware's MazaCAM works great. Can send/ receive mazatrol and iso, convert between mazatrol generations from T2/M2 all the way to the new Matrix. Can convert from Mazatrol to ISO. Program in...
Solutionware's Mazatrol editor allows you to veiw, create convert Matrix programs the same as if you were at the control.
You could also look at MazaCAM. Allows you to program in conversational just like the control or you can program using the CAD/CAM side, import dxfs, iges etc and post to either Mazatrol or ISO.
I have used both MazaCAM utilities by solutionware and Ezatrol for file transfer. Both work great. If you are after something for just file transfer, give Ezatrol a go, it works for both Mazatrol...
Hi,
Does any one know if Agiematic C controls have RS232 ports for communications? Do they need special software?
Beau
If you only have the one machine, i'd recommend Ezatrol for its low cost. www.ezatrol.com

Mark,
They do accept the same inputs however some electronics need to be modified to accept the same frequency as the mazaks put out. I am not on the electronics team so this is all i have been...
Does anyone know where i can get new video cable and power plugs from T1 monitors? We have replacement LCD screens for these controls but our plugs are different.

Not exactly sure what the alarms are without the book in front of me but i would be more inclined to think the powersupply for the spindle controller has blown and may have also taken the spindle...
Our QT10 draw tube is screwed into the chuck from the back end. Not sure if it depends on what brand of chuck is used but. The jobs that we have used a face plate for, we usually machine a set of...
I have never known Griffo Bros being able to convert Mazatrol to G-Code. Is this a new feature? Only program i have heard of and used to convert Mazatrol to G-Code is MazaCAM and it works pretty...
You can try DATAHUNTER, they have wireless RS232 servers. Maybe look at powering all of the devices from 24v DC directly from the machine, this is what we have done to all of our machines instead of...
We had the same problem at our shop on an M2 control. There are 2 ports on the control. One is the CMT port and thinking you have connected the cable to this port. There should be one next to it...

Hi,
You can use Mazacam Utilities for program transfer and offline editing or Griffo Bros, there is also an option for remote request. As for the cable:

I know it can be done. Our technician that comes to fix our MC's had one of his friends to get us a copy of a system disk, and it was on a normal floppy disk. Only problem is the Tech does not want...
You can convert it to mazatrol cmt format using MazaCAM and upload it. It will still be an eia program when in control not mazatrol. To do it, open up MazaCAM utilities, goto Make Mazatrol...
We do engraving in mazatrol using a slot process, just a matter of working out spacing on paper first or use MazaCAM.

Hi,
Are you using MazaCAM to upload back to the machine? It may be that your other software may not recognise the file?? If you have MazaCAM why not just use it to upload/download your programs?
...
Mazak used to make an external programming system for their controls, it take 8" or 10" floppy disks and you can load t2 or m2 control on it, we have one where i work that i am trying to fix. You...
Usually in Mazatrol, there is 3 options in the index sequence CW,CCW or Near(Auto).
Hi all,
Has anyone had any experience with creating a copy/backup of the Mazak M32 system disk before (not the parameter disk)? Our H1000 has a system disk that has some scratches on the disk...
We have a VQC with an M2 control, i will have a look at the parameter list in the morning for you.

Hi,
Mazacam can do this, i have used it for this purpose and also converted from mazatrol to ISO.
If you need any more info PM me for details.
Yes this can be done. We do it using a QT35 T32. We use a manual program in mazatrol to do it. If you need some sample code, email me at [email protected].

Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to help. We can program it using a manual program fine, this is how we have been programming it but it just gets a bit tedious at times working out the points and...
Hi,
We use Mazacam/Geopath here on the Central Coast. The program is probably one of the easiest to learn i have found. I went to TAFE to do CNC machining and learnt mastercam and have found that...
