I have a Calmotion LANCNC-FAD on my FADAL vmc15. I had it setup with a FTP so that I could just drop the file into the machine wirelessly. I do not want to use that FTP anymore. Is it possible to attach a bluetooth adapter with antenna to the ethernet jack and send the files via bluethooth to the machine? If anyone has done this or knowledge of how it would work let me know.

Thanks,

I was sure you could map a drive in Windows to the IP address of the Calmotion then just drag files over or post directly to that shared folder. I could be mistaken but I think you can. Have you tried it?

Yes you can map the drive and make it work through the FTP but that means you have to use your wifi router. What i want to be able to do is put a bluetooth receiver on the LANCNC board using the ethernet slot and transmit the data or files via bluetooth from my computer direct instead of going through my wifi. Think that can be done? Reason for this is I do not want my laptop hooked up to the internet.
