(1) RS-232 series port connection
Connection between PC and CNC
When both PC and CNC are power-off, the communication cable should be connected as
follows: DB9 male is plugged into the RS-232 communication interface on the CNC; DB9 female
is plugged into the 9 pins serial ports on the PC (COM0 or COM1).
Baudrate setting in CNC
The baudrate is set by parameter No.0123. When data transmission is processed between
CNC and PC, the setting value should not be less than 4800. (ex-factory value:115200)
Baudrate setting in PC
After the communication software is executed, left-click
