Nicely done, man! Thanks for taking the time and walking thru the process! I was able to successfully establish a good handshake with a usb to db25 interface.
Question about old cnc controllers fanuc, etc vs hobby controllers like Acorn, Masso, Linux cnc. What do you think about retrofitting cnc with old controller with one of the hobby controllers. are any of them better than old controller. Because if i am correct retrofitting old fanuc with new one is expensive. Is there any chance to hobby controller to beat controller from newer cnc.
I've been involved with Centroid conversions on four machines in a commercial environment. Highly successful. It can be a lot of work, but super satisfying.
I was having some problems sending a program to the machine when I noticed a blank space just before the end of another program that I downloaded from the machine It may have had an invisible character because when I copied and pasted the blank line into my new program I was then able to send it to the machine. Is it possible that a blank line could contain some information?
I have a usb adapter to rs232 worked fine for years now all of a sudden I get an error message on the computer "unable to open port" any ideas what could cause this? have not changed any settings.
Strange issue. 2 of my machines will stop and on the screen it will say "waiting". Most of the time I hit reset and the machines will run fine. I'm running 2 Haas mills on a Phase Perfect phase converter. Any ideas?
Thank you. I'm just about to buy an old machining center. your videos will be very useful.

Really thanks for sharing this with us!!!🥰
Look forward to the DNC to the machine video, can you restart to feed DNC program from the computer mid stream?
Hi, Good Video, would you be able to make a video on how to install drivers into a PC104 Board on a EC400 Haas ?
It’s in the works
