What machine do you have?
Do you have a programming manual?
An internet search will find you a pdf downloadable from somewhere. Milltronics may even be able to email you one if you call them.
Yes...
I have a pdf of the sls manual. It doesn't say much about dxf files but...
Under the parameter settings you can change the CAD type to dxf or CDL for imported files.
Maybe it's as easy as...
Search the forum for contact info for Sporty Bob. Good guy and his rates are quite fair.
Sportybob swapped out the battery on mine. He soldered in a holder for a standard 2032 (i think). The turn around was quick and the price was quite reasonable.
There's apparently a couple different...
I think I've read that the screen resolution/size can be changed in the power parameter menu.
If there's no joy there get ahold of sportybob.
Here are a couple of pics of the monitor in it's current state.
After a couple of months away from the machine I fired it up tonight and saw a cmos battery fail during boot up. I left it powered up for a couple of minutes and cycled the power.
Did not get the...
Not 100% certain but I recall reading something about holding down the reset button while jogging.
Worth a try.
I have a year 2000 MB19 with centruion 6. I think it's the "newer" style with the white control box in the cabinet.
Questions for now are;
There is what I assume to be an external keyboard plug on...
Thanks for the replies.
Jim, I found your thread through Google fu and had read through it already. Lot of work there.
It would be so much easier (and cheaper) if the fanuc stuff played nice with...
I've kicked around the idea of getting a flatbed cnc lathe for a while. I found an ad for one that looks decent but has a Fanuc controller on it.
I know almost nothing when it comes to fanucs.

Okuma, where would one look for the bar feed interface? Would there be a plug on the spindle end of the machine?
PM sent
Sand, tried to send you a PM but you're full.
Sandvet, you've gotten more info than I have.
I was told it would probably need to be reloaded and that there were disks with parameters available.
I was wondering if it was under power due to no...
Thanks for the info, Okuma.
I've found a lathe coming up for sale locally to me that has caught my attention. A little old but it would be almost perfect for what I want to do.
I have posted a question in the siemens forum...
There is a lathe coming up for sale locally soon that I am interested in. Emails sent to the auction house haven't been answered yet as to whether the machine has manuals, etc included with it. The...
Going to look at a DM 3300 lathe this weekend.
It has a controller issue. From what I gather the screen will show "no signal input".
Looking for general info on what issues I could possibly run...
Forgive me if this is the wrong forum section but this seems to be the best on I could find.
I have purchased one of these;
