communication with cnc-machines, e.g. fadal

Hello,

I am searching for Information about the communication protocolls for cnc-machines. Can anybody explain how to send programs to a fadal cnc machine via serial port.

I don´t need a program, but the details of the protocol.

best regards

Stefan

----------- This is an open ended question. What specific problems are you having or are you trying to do?

One suggestion that may be helpful without knowing the details is to examine a program that will load and execute with a sector patcher or bit/hex editor to see exactly what non printing characters may be in the headers/footers of the program, and compare this with the program you are apparently having problems with.

For some free hex/bit editors see

google on for a bunch more.

Good luck and let the group know what you find out.
