Hello,
I am working on finally getting this CNC lathe setup. It powers on and appears to be operating correctly. I started looking for a BTR for this (Yasnac compatible) and I figured I should try to understand what I have here first.
This appears to be an 'after market' addition to the machine.
The back side says 'Serial' and 'Parallel' there is no name on the box but the board says "CLI" There is a power button on the front.
When I open it up, there is another parallel connector inside and the red and black wire that had gone to the 'serial' port are now connected to the parallel port.
The 'output' parallel connector does go into the machine and is spliced into a wire harness behind the user control panel. Although I cant yet tell what lines it is interfacing with.
I had read in a post that the parallel interface would need a short connection to the computer...this box would fit that description.
Any thoughts/suggestions for what this is?
Thank you
Dave
