Handheld Serial Communications

PDA Connect is an application that allows you to transfer any NC Program from your desktop computer to your CNC Machine. The transfer is binary, so an exact copy of the original file is stored on your handheld. Use it for backup of NC programs, parameters or just simply uploading and downloading (drip feed too!). Store multiple CNC Machine "profiles" in the PDA Connect to accommodate various machine communication parameters. Configure new machines to run at 9600 baud, while still working with old controls at 2400 baud.

Unlike our competition, there is no limit on the file size, so you can copy large files to your handheld assuming you have space. You can also extend the memory on our PDA Bundles to move from internal memory to external memory if desired (Note: you can not send from the external memory). Our units are at least 25% less expensive and come with a protective case and BONUS Software! Our competitors burn the software into their units, forcing you to rebuy the software and unit when it fails.  With PDA Connect, just reinstall software!

Use the PDA Connect Windows version to transfer files from you PC to the PDA or the standard Hot Sync Software that is from PALM.

PDA Connect works especially well for the CNC machine industry as a G-Code programming tool. You can also use PDA Connect as a tool for data collection from any device with a RS-232 serial port. It is a great alternative to an expensive laptop computer on the shop floor or a dedicated DNC network at a fraction of the cost! The default installation of PDA Connect includes sample settings for typical CNC machines.

PDA Connect works with several models of CNC Control, such as Fanuc, Mazak, Okuma, Haas, Mori-Seiki, Cinncinnati, Fadal, and more! Supports various baud rate settings from 1200 baud to 115K, handshank settings like NONE, XON/XOFF (Software Flow) and RTS/CTS (Hardware Flow) control, Data Bits 7 or 8, Parity of None, Even, Odd, and Stop Bits of 1 or 2. Most control parameters can be configured for (7, 2, Even), (7, 1, Even) or (8, 1, None).
