Hi,
I am trying to dripfeed my Mikron w. TNC 155 from my Acer laptop, with poor results...
Since the computer don't have a serial port I bought a cardbus adapterDeLOCK > Products > PCMCIA > 61622 Delock PCMCIA adapter, CardBus to 1 x serial that, according to the seller, should work.
Somehow the machine don't like this adapter or my cable. If I connect everything I'm able to send a program to the machine memory but if I try to run the program with the cable connected, the machine stops at some point until I remove the cable. Dripfeeding is the same, everything look good and the machine starts, a few seconds later it just stops.
I don't think that the settings are wrong since I can send a program, remove the cable and then run it. It must be something to do with this adapter or the cable.
I've also tried a "USB to serial"-cable with the same results.
Please help me, I really want to use my laptop for this. Are someone else using this kind of adapter?
