    Exclamation Bridgeport VMC 1000/22 GE Fanuc 18i-M DNC

    Need help setting up DNC for Drip feed on Bridgeport VMC 1000/22 with GE Fanuc 18i-M control. I can send/receive programs via RS-232, but don't know how to set up machine for drip feed or if the machine is capable of it.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Does your machine have a "TAPE" or "RMT" mode in addition to the normal "MEM" mode? If so, that's where you usually drip feed.

    It does not have "Tape" or "RMT" on the control panel anywhere.
