Where do I start to upload a cam file into a Fanuc 18M

I am using HSMXpress with autodesk inventor software. I have a 9pin to 25pin modem cable. I have connected it to the machine and sent the program (supposedly) to the machine. I only say that because the software says its been successfully transferred. But when I look for the program it is not in the directory. The software tells me that it has successfully loaded no matter what screen I'm in on the controller, or what mode I'm in on the control panel (MDI,Auto,Handle,DNC,Edit).

Where do I start, What mode should I be in? what screen should I be on? I believe I have the parameters set correctly but I may not.

I have been reading through other posts and this is as far as I have gotten, I see comments about "LSK" I have not seen that during any my attempts at transferring files.

Thanks for the help,
Jeff
