    Boss 8 Bridgeport Mill series II Error Message

    When I try to load a file it seems to load for a few minutes and then I get an error message 0040. I can delay the error message by clearing everything but I cannot see any files that are loaded on the machine. I just clear files and tools and it delays the error message. I am at a bit of a loss.

    Per the maintenance manual, this is error 3 in error set 3 which is a communications error fixable by operator/programmer.
    Thus it could be program format, communications software, hand shake settings, cable configuration, or operator error.
