Although the data comms worked just fine on win 10 I broke the laptop so tried another win 10 laptop but no joy.
I messed with firewalls and setting but still nothing..
Finally I found an old vista Ideapad I had from years ago. connected it up , set the static ip and it's cutting .. YAY
I will need to upgrade as the screen is a little small at 10" but we are working again,
It had to be something to do with the firewall or the newer ip protocols ..
here is the machine 1.6m wide and 2.5m long but has a conveyor so in reality it is infinitely long ..
