    Fadal program loading

    Hi

    Just bought a fadal vmc15xt 1997
    I have a Shoplink 2.0 usb and it’s transferring the program, red light comes on. Can’t see a program load or find the program.

    Any ideas?

    Re: Fadal program loading

    the follow is from Fadal manual https://www.fadalcnc.com/media/pdf/t...unications.pdf

    The first step to any communications is to prepare the VMC control. At the ENTER NEXT COMMAND prompt, enter the command CD,# and press ENTER.This sets the machine baud rate and readies the RS-232 port.

    Use the appropriate command for the desired baud rate.
    CD,1 = 110 baud
    CD,2 = 150 baud
    CD,3 = 300 baud
    CD,4 = 600 baud
    CD,5 = 1200 baud
    CD,6 = 2400 baud
    CD,7 = 4800 baud
    CD,8 = 9600 baud
    CD,9 = 19200 baud
    CD,10 = 38400 baud
    CD,11 = 57600 baud
    CD,12 = 115200 baud

    To Receive Data:CD,6 ENTER This sets the baud rate at 2400 baud The line feed and echo parameters may also be used with the CD command.See Section Eight, Commands for detailed information on these parameters.When a file is to be received at the VMC the TA,1 command is used. This command is entered after the CD command.EXAMPLE:The program sent to the control should start and conclude with the “%” sign.CD,6 ENTER TA,1 ENTER The VMC is now ready to receive a program After entering the TA command the control is ready to receive a file. The program can now be sent to the control from the source device.

    Hope that helps ya,
