Hello,
I'm trying to get a 1993 Matsuura MC-510-VF mill, with a Yasnac I-80 control up and running, but I'm having trouble getting it to communicate to and from my laptop with a USB port. The Yasnac control has a female RS-232 connector. I have a male RS-232 adapter to USB, but it is not communicating with the laptop. I've heard that I might need a different adapter to get things working. If anyone has had to work through this issue before, I would greatly appreciate knowing what cable and/or adapter you used, settings, etc. to get things working between the machine and the computer? I appreciate you help, thanks.
