    Can you send from the machine to the computer? Possible bad cable?

    Did you check to see if you had the correct com port selected?

    what are you using for a cable are you by chance using a USB to Com port?

    believe we have the null cable, we can send to machine but it send the full program not drip, the machine does run but when the memory is full it errors the Haas, we are using a laptop thro a usb to serial cable, then null cable to the Haas, all settings on the computer match the Haas, we have tride changing several settings with no better sucess

    one other thing, what feedback should one see on the Haas and mastercam when doing dnc, should the computer give some feedback other than finished sending, does the Hass do anything other than the screen full of code and running line by line same as when a program runns from memory
