thanks Tim
yes we want to pull files to and from the machines hard drive (for larger programs)
i will give this a try and see if i can "see" the machine on the network
we need to see the machine so predator can do its thing to move the files where they are needed
so i take it that my M198 PXXXX call will be channel 9 not 4 or 5 to drip feed from hard drive then?
yes the manuals are a bit confusing but when it gets a bit tricky its says see your IT dept
all i need to do is "see" the machine and i should be good to go
thanks again for the info
trying to hook up the ethernet on our fanuc 16i
i can ping my host computer but cant see it on the network
do i have to share the machine or something or do i need filezilla or some sort of software here to see it
we are updating our predator DNC here and our IT dept says they dont know what to do on the ethernet side
any help or ideas would be very helpful at this point
TIA
look in the makino programming manual for all the different codes and what they do
