Hi all.
I have a Hitachi Seiki VK45 VMC. Since support is so limited on this machine, I try to take as many precautions as I can. I would like to back up my ladder program. I already have all the paremeters backed up but not the ladder it's self.

I have the WinYumo (win yu yu) software and the correct serial cable plus this document:

shows how to put the ladder onto the mill. I need to get the ladder OFF so I can save it! Plus I have a friend who has lost his ladder and I would like to send him a copy of mine.

Last thing in the world I want to do is hose mine trying to copy it

I think, the PC side of the thing is fairly common. Here is a picture of my screen in the PC mode:


Well the pic does not show so here is the link for it: https://secure.filesanywhere.com/fs/...6b8661657279a8
it looks like this:
** M16-II Ver5.0 **

I can figure out WinYumo, it's the mill I am worried about. If anyone knows the proceedure to get the mill to send the ladder to WinYumo I would sure love to know how. Also let me know what kinds of "stupd" things to watch out for so I don't hammer my "working" mill !!!!!!!

Thank you
