I have it set for dxf but it won't even get to the point of a picking a file.

Have you tried emailing Milltronics?

That doesn't look like the SBC. I've had to replace the Dallas real time clock RTC (CMOS)battery and the simdisk? battery(Keeper) on my 99. (not SBC) I did the RTC myself by carving away the outer...

My mill has the SLS version of C6. I'm guessing that's why it doesn't work but I don't know for sure. I never did get it to work.

If you use Fs can you plug in a keyboard then?

I have a 99 RH20 which is somewhat similar. It has brushed DC motors for movement which could need more maintenance than newer AC motors but haven't had any issues yet. I only use the...

Thought I'd share my fix since I didn't find much in the Milltronics forum.

I have a 1999 mill running Centurion 6, don't have the SBC upgrade yet. I hadn't run the mill for a couple days, and...

Alt F3 on a keyboard works on my C6 SLS. Not sure what your 'missing'

I use a Hewlett-Packard KB0316 keyboard and a din5 AT male to mdin6 female adapter. Much better if you do any conversational at the mill.

Was going to try out the dxf import into a conversational program today by using the F9/cad key then F1 mill. When I select mill it goes to the next screen and says "unsupported screen". Guessing I...

I have Cent. 6 SLS. Basically it has some features stripped away, some are just accessed a little different. Why they didn't let you use these features via a skill level 3 or something I don't...

Have any luck sorting this out? Not sure how complicated your part is but could you write a program for each tool, then write another program that calls them up as it goes through each offset?

Did Milltronics ever build horizontal mills? Something the size of my RH20 or a little smaller would be perfect. No pallet changers. Or any other manufactures with a conversational control? And...

Thanks guys, I'll give that a try.

I want to program a move to XY, then be able to use the hand wheel to move Z up and down, and then program another XY move and repeat. I've just been using Jog and distance but that is a lot of...

Any idea why I don't have a F6(save) key under F10 (util) F10 (prams)? While reading the SLS manual it also shows some other keys I don't have.

After finding the misplaced ! NCB files and loading them it finally is running again. I haven't used DOS in ages so it was a bit of a challenge.

I got the parameters from you on friday and have them loaded and double checked. Are there separate NCB files other than whats in the parameter print out? I wouldn't have that.

No tool changer,...

Getting the battery replaced and some parameters loaded has it running again. However, I can't get the spindle to run or the manual tool change button to work? Do I have to have a tool in for it to...

I was pm'ing you while you where here. I got neither:(

Got power to the RH20 today. -'99 C6. On power up it scrolls through some text then I get this, SRAM Freespace = -1, and not much else. I even had a floppy ready to make a backup disk -none...

I'm still waiting for it to get shipped here, then I can get the exact model. On a side note, any tricks to removing the z motor for door clearance, other than trying to keep the same alignment from...

I emailed Milltronics and they also said it could be ran on single phase with a power loss because it had DC axis drives. Assume just the spindle is three phase. I found a manual for the spindle...

That was what I am leaning towards but I wasn't sure how to size it for the rest of the loads other than the spindle.

I'm looking at a 99 RH-20. Its supposed to have a 10hp, 5000 rpm spindle. Do I need a rotary sized for just the motor amps or the whole load? Or will single phase work on one of these? I haven't...
