The DNC-Max Server is the DNC engine responsible for all communications related activities. Users can choose to run the DNC-Max Server as a service or as an application. This is the core component of DNC-Max.
Supports from 1 up to 4000 simultaneous ports for DNC or drip-feed when combined with industry standard RS232 communications hardware from companies such as MOXA, Quatech, DIGI, Comtrol, etc.
Remote network configuration and administration of multiple servers from a single point (DNC-Max Client), increases ease of management and installation, and makes it possible to monitor DNC server status from anywhere on the LAN, WAN, or across the Internet. The DNC-Max Client allows users to remotely configure ports on-the-fly without having to stop the DNC-Max Server, or even active file transfers on the same port, while making changes. The port configuration will automatically update when communication to the CNC ends. Users may also remotely configure the DNC-Max server, including server re-start, from any networked PC. The DNC-Max Client UI is the most advanced, most flexible client available.
Several levels of password protection limiting configuration and control options to key personnel.
Powerful remote request and auto name features allow operators the ability to initiate file transfers directly from their CNC control or with the use of hand held terminals for older or CNCs with limited alpha-numeric keypads or other limitations. The remote request supports DNC restart and file looping, extensive directory support including sub-directory support and directory prioritization, directory filters, and wildcards (Ex. P123*).
Multiple send/restart functions give the operator the ability to send from any point in file, specified by line number, block number or tool change - including remotely with remote request.
Muliti Program Request, multiable programs can be remote requested with one remote request comannd with the use of wild cards, or requesting complete directories, or only defined program extensions within a directory.
Advanced Operator Reports Saved Success Reports, Failed Reports, Directory Listing Reports, Remote Request Failed Reports, provide the operator with the information needed to complete his or her task.
DNC-Max provides comprehensive real-time logging of DNC system and machine activity, and the ability to send status reports directly to CNC operators.
Hardware Compatibility of DNC-Max provides you with the largest range of hardware options. DNC-Max works with-off-the-shelf, industry standard RS-232 serial communications hardware, including Ethernet and Wireless serial device servers, traditional card based hardware and existing legacy hardware.
