Re: Program to download to lathe Fanuc quirks settings for RS232 issues?

Fanuc with the exception of the 0a series and the latest boss version
(torq-cut version) are actually very edit friendly. so on machine
edit is very easy.
the wire in my last post ALWAYS works on all fanuc controls if the
cable is done correctly. I confirmed with my former co-works that
the amada instructions for hyperterminal are good(as I knew they
would) also procomm+ for windows works but hyperterm is there
already.
