DNC Wizard
If you are unsure about your CNC protocol and end of block
characters, then dnc4U can easily sort these out by using
the new DNC Wizard.
|
|
Step 1 : Select the CNC you want to analyze...
|
Step 2 : dnc4U will automatically detect all your PC
serial ports. Simply select the COM port you want to use.
|
Step 3 : You should now take a guess at the CNC range.
(dnc4U will cycle through all ranges, its just quicker if
you have a rough idea)
The vast majority of CNC machines will fall into the Average
category, between 2400 and 9600 baud. Slow is between 150
and 1200 baud (and in general is a much older CNC), whilst
the Fast category is between 19200 and 115200 baud (in general
a much more modern CNC).
|
Step 4 : You should now send out a file FROM YOUR CNC
back to the computer and let dnc4U cycle through the protocols,
you will see garbage data gradually be replaced by legible
data.
|
Step 5 : When detection has happened, you will go to
this screen. You can then click "Store Settings Away"
or click Cancel.
