Title: csmio/ip-a communication problem
Post by: oldsmobi on April 27, 2015, 06:24:32 PM

I have  a csmio/ip-a  i can not get it to communicate . I run firmware uploader it says " no device found " .when i click on plug in comtrol  in mach3 it says "csmio not connected. i have it connected direct to the computer with the crossover cable. there is nothing connected to the csmio except cable and the power. i turned the power on then waited to connect the cable , but i get the same thing.I have spent more time then i want  trying to get this to work .the computer is not connected to the net , but i brought it in from the shop to download thefirmware and Microsoft NetFramework 3.5  . ithis thing is about to end up in a corner .

have you set the ip-adress of your PC ?
csmio has notmaly 10.1.1.2.
is your PC in the same network (depending on IP adress)?
can you oing 10.1.1.2 ?

Im not very cuputer savvy , but i did set the ip  address to 10.1.1.1 and the mask to 255.255.255.0 as the manual says.as far as pinging im not sure how to do that.what do you mean "is your pc in the network"

got start -> run  enter cmd
cmd box showes up

in this cmd box type:  ping 10.1.1.2 + Enter

then you should see that the csmio is reachable or not.

i dont understand what you are saying"got start -> run  enter cmd
cmd box showes up". also why are you saying 10.1.1.2 for the ip ,in the manual it says to enter 10.1.1.1

ok not realy.
your PC is set to 10.1.1.1
CSMIO is set by default to 10.1.1.2

and the ping for 10.1.1.2 says 0 lost, what means your pc can "reach" it.

can you open a cmdbox again and try a IPCONFIG + enter ?
are you sure that you have installed CSMIO software for the IP/A?

I have seen them flashing when i turned the power on. I just got off work ,later I think I will connect the computer to the net and down load the software. maybe there is a problem with the disk.
