(1) Set the output port for the computer (or software) to “Parallel” for a parallel
connection, or to “Serial” or “RS-232C” for a serial connection.

* The PNC-1860/1410/1210 is equipped with an auto-interface function, and
so when left set to “AUTO,” it will automatically determine whether a parallel
or serial connection is used. When a serial connection is used, however, it
is necessary to set the communication parameters to match those set for the
computer (and/or software).
(7) Pressing the
or key will sequentially display “PARA,” “SERI,” and
“AUTO.”
If you are using a parallel connection, display “PARA” or “AUTO” and press
ENTER
key.
If a serial connection is used, display “SERI” or “AUTO” and press
ENTER
key.
Then set the communication parameters for the PNC-1860/1410/1210 to match
those selected for the computer (and/or software).
(8) When “SERIAL” or “AUTO” is selected, the menu at right then appears on the
display. Set each parameter to match the parameters used by the computer or
software. (Refer to “Setting the protocol for a Serial connection” on page 21.)
* If the communication parameters for the computer and the PNC-1860/1410/
1210 are not identical, the cutting data cannot be received correctly, which
may result in faulty operation.
3-4 Selecting the Interface
Use the control panel to select the type of interface.
The selected interface type and communication parameters are stored in memory even after the power is switched off.
To change the interface type or the communication parameters, configurations must be re-entered.
