Additional Notes
Note: The transfer of Mazatrol programs with CMT IO requires
PC-DNC plus 3.3.1 or later.
When transferring to / from this CNC, it is recommended that
you use a hardware handshake cable. Diagram:
PC 9-pin to CNC 25-pin:
PC(2) to CNC(2)
PC(3) to CNC(3)
PC(7) to CNC(5)
PC(8) to CNC(4)
PC(5) to CNC(7)
Jumper 6,8,20 on CNC side only
Attach cable shield to pin 1 on CNC side only
PC 25-pin to CNC 25-pin:
PC(2) to CNC(3)
PC(3) to CNC(2)
PC(4) to CNC(5)


PC(5) to CNC(4)

MAZ.3 Press CMT I/O softkey
MAZ.4 Press SAVE CMT softkey
MAZ.5 Enter work #
MAZ.6 Press INPUT
MAZ.7 Repeat 5/6 for addl. Work #'s
MAZ.8 Press START
Steps for transferring PC to CNC (EIA programs):
EIA.1 Press PROGRAM softkey
EIA.2 Press PROGRAM FILE softkey
EIA.3 Press TAPE I/O softkey
EIA.4 Press ALL LOAD NC<-TAPE

Steps for transferring PC to CNC (Mazatrol programs):
MAZ.1 Press PROGRAM softkey
MAZ.2 Press PROGRAM FILE softkey
MAZ.3 Press CMT I/O softkey
MAZ.4 Press LOAD CMT softkey
MAZ.5 Enter work #
MAZ.6 Press INPUT
MAZ.7 Press START
Tip: To avoid keying in program #'s for Mazatrol input, use the
DATA IO -> CMT -> CMT CONTENTS function to load file
contents onto the screen. Then select LOAD NC <- CMT and
click START. Values will remain filled in for you. Note that older
