I just ordered the drivers from SWI that I need to drive the MX3 with an I-Omega zip drive. That should do what I need to do, The only problem I had with a floppy disc was the size. Thanks to all, you may hear back if this doesn't work. Jim Dean

James, Yes, that's exactly what we want to do. The surface files we are using are too big to use any other way. So my question really is, what software should I be using to dowwnload this DNC code? I've tried the files communication option in MasterCAM 7.2, but it does not appear to be working.

Has anyone had any experience loading DNC code to an MX3e from MasterCAM. We have been running DNC from the floppy drive in the mill for some time now, but files have reached a size that we need to send diectly from the PC. So far we have had limited success. Any help would be appreciated. Jim Dean
