    IGF for milling machine, OSP5000M-G. How to?

    Hi!
    I have a full set of diskettes with IGF software on them (with written serial numbers of my machine (OKUMA MC-4VA). So a question would be- how to install this IGF software, really want to take a look on this option. I haven't found any instructions in manuals about milling machine IGF, installing or use. There is additional PCBs with IGF marking installed on machine control panel, so everything should be there to use ir. Only - how? I would be very happy to hear from You.

    Find the tumbler marked "install". Maintenance menu pops up with OSP start.
    or
    Power up the MC with first floppy inserted.

    Did that- no results.Changed floppy cable to IGF LOAD connector (there are two- one for system load, other for IGF load and file creating), LOAD tumbler switched to LOAD ON, on screen WAITING FOR FLOPPY, inserted floppy, pressed IGF LOAD button- nothing happens. Button is working- tested it with multimeter. Could it be some hidden parameter inside OSP5000M-G that allows IGF loading?

    Emm- who is Dzintars? About floppies- floppy drive is 100% working, IGF floppies there are two sets (new and old version)- I don't believe both sets are wrong or damaged, they were kept in good conditions. Something else is wrong there.

    I know about that company, but Im not a factory, so never had real need of contacting them- believe it or not it is my hobby. I will try to contact owner directly, my good friend know him very well.
