Awesome guys that helped me a bunch. Saved me from trying to be an artist ) Muchos appreciation

Hey all; Does anyone one know of any good image file converters. I'm try to do some quick engraving and was hoping to save myself a little time by converting and importing. The 2 demos i tried didn't work so hot. Thanx Ben

Okay, Still can't get this to work. Does anyone have a working sample program they can e-mail me?? I also heard someting about line feeds(not too sure what that means) Im pretty sure my parity and baud rate are correct otherwise I would not be able to send to the PC(assumption). I am not sure about the transmit settings in Cimco as it gives a few different options for CR/LF. I know its probably something silly, but I will not be beat ) If there are no other suggestions I guess I will give Caledonian or Anthony a call. Thanx all Ben

Thanx for you help guys I am going to try all this stuff when I get back to the shop. Thanx for the compliment in my Bike Connor. It is a fun toy. I'll let you guys know if I get it to work or not. Thanx again

I'm not sure what you mean connor

Yep thats how it looks. I have tried a % sign at the end of the program an well. If I send a file from the control to the PC it works great, but if I try to send the same program back it doesn't work.

I've tried both ways but it doesn't seem to matter. If I enable Xon in cimco when I tell the machine to recieve it starts to send the file then says "Varid Information reading" then I get a time interrupt error.

WOW I've just been reeading through a lot of old posts and there seems to be a whole lot of knowledgeable people on this forum. I'm using cimco to send and recieve programs to several machines but I can't seem to figure out this OSP700m control. I can send files from the machine to the pc just fine, but I can't send from the PC to the machine. It reads the program name, and even tells me if the file exists in the control. Then it just sits and gives me a time out error. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanx
