Hitatchi Seiki rs232

Hey guys

Ht20sii Seicos L multi screen , yasnac Lx3 control

Struggling to get the rs232 to input a program.
I don’t see any options or settings on the NC Side, only place I can find is via editing, NC Prg input, on the multi side of the control.
I’ve played with baud rates, data and stop bits like they're lottery numbers but nothings talking.
Any advice is appreciated ! I’m not sure what I’m missing.

Still haven’t solved my issue but these are the params/ settings for the LX3 that I’ve found and figured out.
If anyone has any input it’s much appreciated.

Param #6003
D7 = 1 tape device uses com module ( 0=PTR )
D6 =0 rs232 ( 1 rs422)

D5,4: ( 5,4 =0,1 output port# rs232#1)
(5,4=1,0 output port# rs232 #2)
D5 =0
D4 = 1

D3 = 1 (0 eob is set LF only )( 1=CRLF )
D2 = 0

D1,D0: ( 0,1 input port # rs232#1)
( 1,0 input port# rs232#2)
D1 = 0
D0 = 1


Tape reader = port 2
Rs232c = port 1
Seiki don = output 1 , input 2 D0,D4

Param 6026,6028 : NC rs232 port1 : baud…ext
Param 6027,6029 : multi rs232 port2 : baud…ext

Param 6022 D1, D0 = 0,0 : parity enabled for input/output

Param 6021 :
DR ( Data set ) , ER ( data terminal ready) ,
CD ( Data receiving carrier detection)
Usually the previous are not used by the NC except when param 6021 D4=1 a DR interlock is added.

Param 6002 D7 = 1 punches out tape code with iso code

Param 6000 D7 = 1 outputs ISO data, 0 = EIA

I struggled through this same issue years ago... Fast forward, there was nothing wrong with the machine and required no setting or parameter changes on the CNC side. My computer / cabling was the problem.

1. shorten the cable, I'm at 12 feet.

2.
I use the program dnc4U to transfer from my laptop via USB to an RS232 adapter into an HT23Sii.
That program has a test mode where you send code from the machine to the computer and it basically figures out everything for you.
These are the settings it picked for itself and has worked great for about 8 years now.
You could probably apply this to whatever transfer software you use.

(Port)
Com1
Keep Port Alive: Check

(Baudrate)
4800

(Character Set)
ASCII / ISO

(Protocols)
Data Bits: 7
Parity: Even
Stop Bits: 2
Enable DTR: check
Enable RTS: check

(Flow Control)
Xon/Xoff - Interrupt

(Buffer Size In Bytes)

Thanks Colton.
You are correct it was a cable connection issue !
I got it working with cimco and micro dnc2
