I thought I was computer literate. I download Ncnet Lite from cadem.com. It is a msdos file. How do I install. I went into my run file and tried it that way. I tried coping the cmd line but it says it cant do it, please help.

[Al_The_Man]

The last time I down loaded, it was a windows file, but I had understood that sometime ago they started charging a fee for it?

[katsbobo]

so do you know how to open it

[Al_The_Man]

What makes you think it is a DOS program? I have an older copy of the same version, and it runs/installs under windows.
I checked the site today, it is the same version as I have and it is a Windows .exe file?

Al the Man. _Thanks for responding. I attached a picture of the logo and as you can seen its dos. Does anyone know why this happens

[Al_The_Man]

Send an email to Cadem and tell them it will not load into windows.

I've been having the same problem with that netlite-41-eng.exe file.
Thought it was just me until I found this post.
Hopefully something gets resolved...I'd like to try it out.

[katsbobo]

How is it that you and I are the only two people that have this problem. It muct be a setting we have. I'm going to email nclite and see whats the problem

[Bubba]

Out of curiosity, I went to the site and looked it up.

It says on the last line in the detail section:

"Runs on Windows 2000 / XP"

What version of Windows are you running???? This may be a problem.

[Al_The_Man]

I have a older version working under 98 & XP, but I also tried the new one and it comes up with the same error as everyone is getting now?

Me too - won't run on XP Pro

To anyone with the same NC Lit download problem. I have cut and pasted an email response I finally got from them. This is what it said.

There was a temporary problem with our website. It is now fixed, can you
please download once again.

(So Bloodeye we are not crazy after all) Thanks to all those who took the time to actually try and help a complete stranger. I guess I'm not a stranger anymore but part of the CNCZONE family. I know that sounds kind of gay but It was my first time. I mean first time as in a Newbie because I had plenty of girls in the "Niagara Falls" area

Let me clear the air.
Last week we switched and upgraded our web servers. Our emails, downloads of all products and just NCnet Lite and webforms went kaput. We have fixed them now and ready to roll. i recommend that you download fresh and re-install NCnet Lite.

If you still experience problems, please email me direct at [email protected]. I am the webmaster.

Hi,new to cnc zone.I work in a small shop,just me and two cnc lathes,trying to get my boss into the 20th century.I 've been looking at these free dnc programs and noticed this thread had ncnet lite in it.Is the free version of ncnet lite v7.0 worth fooling with and how hard it to got up and running.I'm kind of on my own doing this.I've got fanuc o-t controles on two nakamure tome tmc-15 machines and am tired of having to hand type everything.Can someone point me in the right direction for help.

[Al_The_Man]

As per my post previous to yours, I recently downloaded it on a new PC I had and to obtain a registration key, after that it ran as usual, it is a nice program for a freebie.
Alot better than messing with Hyperterminal.

Sure, here is a cadem file for the Fanuc 0, I always use the 3 wire cable and jumper the hardware handshake out both ends.

The machine has the 25 pin rs232,I hope to get an adaptor from rs232 to a ubs and plug into the ubs on the computer.Will this work?I don't know about a 3 wire,jumper or what a handshake are.I'm not a big techie person.
