    Question How to use behind the tape reader in fanuc 6M?

    I once again call upon the wise men in this forum.

    Some time ago i bought a horizontal machining center. It has now been installed and is ready for use. It has a fanuc 6M controller, i asume it is a 6M-A sin`s i can`t see a B any where. Anyways when i bought it a behind the tape reader (atleast thats what i asume).

    And here is the question how do i use it? I have tried a couple of things but haven`t got anything working. This might ofcause have something to do with the fact that i don`t know what i`m doing. Thats why i need some info on how to use it.

    I have added some pictures of the setup. I use Edgecam to generate g-code and to send the code to the machine. I also use a parallel to usb adapter sins my computer dosn`t have a parralellport.

    Thanks prehand for any answers.
