    Drip Feed / DNC? --- Conquest T42 with Fanuc 18T controller

    I have a Hardinge Conquest T42 with Fanuc 18T controller. There is clearly no switch to put it into tape mode. Is there soft key for tape mode?

    I have the RS-232 hooked up to a Titan USB, which works great for moving files. I now have some programs that I can't get to run because they are too large.

    I thought I had seen "tape" somewhere on one of the control soft keys. I'm certain I have seen "punch" for outputting files. There must be a way to get this thing into tape mode. What's the scoop???

    Thanks!

    Thanks!!! I've tried all of this. The key is I can't find "Tape Mode" anywhere. Switch nor soft key.
