Information about Haas CNC
Data from the Haas CNC is sent either via the RS232 serial port (for older machines) or via the Ethernet port (for newer machines).
Ethernet connection
If you have a newer machine, there is a good chance that you have an available Ethernet port on it.
In this case, just connect the machine to the company’s LAN, set the appropriate settings for this network on the machine:
Settings – Wired connection (it is recommended to disable DHCP and set a permanent IP address)
and then enter option No. 143 Machine Data Collect and set this value to 5051.
After saving the settings, you can connect the machine to Scout using SCT and immediately start collecting data from it.
In case of problems or questions related to network settings, please contact us, we will help.
RS232 connection
It is necessary to make an appropriate adapter connecting the machine socket with the PC socket or RS232 to Ethernet converter. For more information on how to prepare such an adapter, contact us.
