    Long time lurker first time poster,

    I am trying to export the Machine Parameters using TNC Server. cant find parameter file program number under which the machine parameters
    are stored


    I have had a Bridgeport VMC 1000 -22 (circa 1994)

    My machine parameters are all present and the machine for the most part is running well, will post them up here once i can get them backed up

    i have gotten as far as

    Below is the instructions on how to do it but i cant seem to find the "program number"

    Press "MOD" until "Code Number" is displayed
    Enter "95148" in CODE NUMBER
    Press "ENT" to Activate MP mode
    Press "EXT" & the press "ENT" to prepare TNC for data output

    Enter the program number under which the machine parameters
    are stored


    Press "ENT" to Start data transfer

    When the data transfer is finished, the dialog EXTERNAL DATA OUTPUT
    is cleared.
    Pres "END" to exit MP mode

    attached is an extract from the manual

    FIXED

    Made one very small adjustment to the instructions and got it to work,


    Press "MOD" until "Code Number" is displayed
    Enter "95148" in CODE NUMBER
    Press "ENT" to Activate MP mode
    Press "EXT" & the press "ENT" to prepare TNC for data output
    Press "NOENT" to create new file
    Enter the program number under which the machine parameters
    are stored
    Press "ENT" to Start data transfer

    When the data transfer is finished, the dialog EXTERNAL DATA OUTPUT
    is cleared.
    Pres "END" to exit MP mode
