Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: DYNA 2400 SOFTWARE

On Mastercam Version 9.0 a post processor file call MPDYNA24.PST should work with the Dyna 2400 mill. I would able to run all code generated from it and of course due to the 900 lines limitation from the old Dyna, you would need to split the code into two files if it exceed 900 lines. On dot.net case wouldn't it make sense that the Dot.Net.Class covesr all communcation (modem,tcpip,port...etc..) aspect ? If it doesn't, MicroSoft done a lousy job of investing and developing this Dot.Net technology. More power to you Jeff and keep going...

Best Regard,

reading one charecter out of the buffer at a time and that works
ok. This has highlighted the need to include a log file feature
that logs responeses recieved for each line as it's sent out. The
Dyan controller just resets itself on some errors leaving you
wondering where it was at in the code. This may also allow one to
resume at a certain spot in the code.

The big problem now is genertaing good code over 900 lines to test
it with. I can't seem to find the correct post processer file for
MasterCam and the Dyna 2400c controller. Seems to flip out on some
of the GR a moves.

sends signal back to your computer (I monitored this process on the
R232 breakout box). It's waiting for codes and increment on the
controller as data being sent from your program. The rate is 2400-8-
1, if this help. On MasterCam you can start from 000 and increment
the step +1 on the post process.
