I just picked up a used machine (Hardinge Conquest 42) with OT-B with just a tailstock and it came with some parameters but as I'm finding out not all of them. The guy who had it before me did a reset/delete on it before I picked it up not realizing what he did. I don't have it under power yet but I'm sure it's missing the NC and diagnostics parameters. I didn't realize there were more than it came with. I knew it had an issue going in and it was priced accordingly but I would like to get it running. I've been able to find the OT-C/D manuals but not OT-B specific.

Going to call Hardinge tomorrow but I've heard they don't help like they used to. Can anyone confirm this? Any help is appreciated.

There should be a disk in the back power case door that has all the parameters, K-words, programs that originally shipped with the machine. If not, you could the Harding service department and gave the email them to you. I worked there for 31 years and we always kept a back up of everything on the network. Hope this helps ! Let me know how you make out.
