I'm having an issue with our Okuma DNC. Its an OSPU100M control. I'm getting Error 4218 and sometimes 4220, DNC B communication Error. The program will send and as soon as the spindle turns on it errors out. If I move where the spindle turns on in the program it will go to that point and then error out when the spindle comes on.
Two programs posted the same day from the same software and same post, one works and the other has the above issues. They are two different type of toolpaths, but that shouldn't matter? Its all coming from the same CAM software. I'm using Cimco edit V6 to drip feed. I posted to our other Okuma with an OSPE100M and it works fine. Has a different PC that it drip feeds from as well.
Is it a machine problem or a PC problem? Its all very confusing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
