How we Replace Your Excellon DNC Server
We start with a modern computer configured for Microsoft Windows. We install as many hardware COM ports as necessary (one COM port is required per machine) using standard PCI serial boards, which can be purchased at most retail computer stores – or on the Internet. These “plug and play” boards are available with 2, 4, 8, or 16 serial ports and come with the necessary software drivers for all versions of Windows OS.The PCI bus in the computer provides the necessary hardware interrupt sharing.
We then install our DNC File Server software on the hard disk and create an icon on the Windows’ desktop. When the computer boots it automatically loads one copy of our DNC software into a window for each COM port. If there are 16 COM ports we load 16 copies of our DNC Server into 16 separate windows. All the windows run simultaneously and can be either displayed or minimized on the computer screen.
Summary:
Our DNC File Server for Windows is a complete replacement for your ailing Excellon Data Workshop or DNC file server. Contact California Software Systems today for a demonstration.
