Sending CNC code to the machine using hyperterminal

Sending CNC code to the machine using hyperterminal

17 May 2006

FeatureCAM provides a free utility (EZ-UTLS) to send and receive nc code between your computer and the cnc machine. In some cases EZ-UTLS will not be able to communicate with your machine. This is a common issue and here we will show you how to use 'Hyperterminal' instead. Hyperterminal is a Windows based communication software that will allow you to send/receive files to your machine. It provides a greater level of control and it is easier to use than EZ-UTLS. Follow these steps to set up your connection: 1. Go to Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Communications -> Hyperterminal (see below).

2.

Name your connection and assign an icon to it. You will be able to have several configurations (ideally one for each machine in your shop). Click 'OK' after you're done.

3.

In the next page you need to select the COM port that you will use to connect to the machine. After you selected the COM port click on 'OK'.

4.

Enter the appropriate settings. The settings you enter in this page need to match the setting of your machine. You should be able to obtain these settings by looking in your machine control, user manual or by calling the machine manufacturer. If your settings are not correct you won't be able to send/receive files. After you entered the settings click 'OK'.

5.

After that click on File -> Properties. Now open the 'settings' tab and click on ASCII setup. Follow the pictures below.

6.

You are all set. Now click on 'Transfer' and select either 'Capture text' (to receive files) or 'Send text file' (to send files to the machine). You will be able to browse for .txt files only. When you send files to the machine you should see the text scrolling on the window. Your CNC machine should be ready to receive code before you actually send it from the computer.

When you close Hyperterminal, Windows will prompt you if you want to save the connection you just created. Click on 'Yes'. Next time you want to transfer something to your CNC machine you can open this configuration and send files to the machine.
