Two questions.
#1 I am getting an 087 alarm when trying to load a 4k GCode file. Am able to load/transmit via USB from Mac M1 mini if I make the file smaller, no 087 alarm. I think the control will support Baud 9600 which my computer is set at. Should I lower both to 4800 Baud? I am guessing the 9600 Baud from Computer is over running the control. Control has a limit of 32K. Can I increase that without physically changing the memory module in control?
#2 Turning control on: When I start router motors I get 007 alarm on control.
Some years ago a tech at Accurouter gave me a way to start the motors before turning the control on. Anyone help me with that?
Thank you so much for any help. At a later date I may be allowed to tell you why I need to run this machine NOW.
The Baud rate at CNC controller side should be fixed, can not be changed.
