We use a PCI1880 card on the CNC mill.

Got a spare computer and another PCI1880 card for a complete spare setup.

This spare PCI1880 card does not run the mill correctly.

how can you list or print all the parameters on a PCI1880 card so we can compare everything is set the same?

Other suggestions to get this spare working?.

Hi KarlTownsend,

You can issue the LV command to print all of the variables on the controller, LA to print all of the arrays, and then LS to list out the DMC program. If you want to configure the spare unit to match the existing card, you will want to confirm you are running the same DMC program, with the same values set for all of the configuration parameters. These configuration parameters would include things like the MT, CE, KP, KI, KD values. If you are running this card on a PC with 64 bit Windows, you can use our GDK software to backup all of the settings from your older card, and then load them onto the spare card.
