    Prolight Machines PLM 2000 4 axis CNC

    I have a PLM 2000 (I think) that had been converted to a laser etcher. It came to me without a spindle. It did however come with a 4th axis that looks a lot like a lathe. Unfortunately it did not come with a spindle so a new one will have to be fabricobbled.

    I have a windows 98 machine and I open up the plm software in DOS but I can't establish communication with the CNC. Any ideas?
