Roger, USB under pure DOS is possible but I haven't tried it. I'm not too sure about the connections between the USB klouge and the keyboard buffer. Google and...
Have a look at http://www.3tronics.com/MAMI2401A_Info.htm This device has the advantage of you being able to use your own pushbuttons (perhaps picking some...
I think if you read closely, that pad is only programmable through a Windows interface. Also, CNC Pro does not accept USB as written. Not that you can't use...
Right. What you are looking for is a "Keyboard wedge". You plug the wedge into the keyboard port and the keyboard into the wedge. It's the same technology...
When I suggested that device, I was just showing an example. You need a modern BIOS to let the USB keyboard emulate an old PS2 controller. Most of you...
That's great! I own a MAME arcade controller that uses something similar to this. Build your own cool pendant. But, still, proportional control is out of...

We have run CNCpro for years. Our computer crashed, and we found a version on the web. It is asking us to go to yeager automation and get the liscensed...

CNCpro is now open source software. You will be able to find several versions that have been compiled (license free) in the files section of this group in the...
Just go to the files section of the Yahoo Group and download the file cncpro_tracy.zip (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/CNCPro/files/) It is the last Yeager...
I guess I spoke too soon. The program itself is up and running. We cannot get this computer to communicate with the brain to run the machine. Can anyone...
No, His name is Keith Bedillion and I have tried for two weeks to get him to return my calls. He was great when we first got the machine, though. My problem...
... You replaced the computer you had with a different one? And that's when the problem showed up? I suspect that differences in the hardware might be one ...
We replaced the computer with the exact same hardware as before. Through this forum, I found cnc pro and we did get that installed and the gcodes loaded. The...
You need to make sure that CNC pro is putting the signals out on the right port that is connected to the machine. If you have more than one parallel port you...
Okay, David, Here are some things to try. And with the first two, I do not mean to insult your intelligence, and you've probably already tried them... but,...
Also, not trying to be demeaning, but your are running this in pure DOS and not a DOS window???? While it may look like it is running, it will not run in a...
David, it is always disconcerting to have a machine which ought to work ..yet it does not. I have no experience at all with your software set up, i use EMC2. ...
I think you may have the port pin settings wrong. I think you would be lucky to have the port be set up for your machine with the default settings in CNC Pro. ...
Have you configured CNCPro? The easiest way would be to restore from the last good backup. Or, if the computers are the same and the hard drive from the first ...
I was being a smartass, regarding your comment about the brain... I would suggest using a parallel port monitor to see what is going out your port, it might be...
David, I've only been half following this thread. The pin configuration HAS got to be right or nothing happens. You also have to use the right printer port,...
I finally got my Sherline rotary table rigged up with a stepper motor and did some testing on the A axis and here's what I found. When you first fire the...
