Hello all, the company I work for recently purchased a 1995 Haas VF3 and we (the engineering dept.) are working on getting the electronic interface working. We currently cannot connect to the machine VIA RS-232 and are looking to make a quick fix by installing a Floppy Drive to USB converter in the machine. I saw somewhere that PLR Electronics makes a great drive that does exactly this (found here: Floppy To USB Upgrades - replace your floppy drive with a USB floppy emulator ). Is this something that is as easy as finding the plug in for it as far as the hardware installation goes? I'm pretty sure that SATA wasn't around back then so I assume its a ribbon cable of some sort.
Thanks for the help!
