Kitamura Mycenter 0 Parameter backup

Big news! I have a new toy!

If you’re one of my YouTube followers, you’ve likely caught wind of my recent acquisition – a used Kitamura Mycenter Zero CNC machine, for $3000.

Youtube short: 3000$ Kitamura CNC

In this YouTube short, I show the delivery of my CNC machine and a walkaround of this 1992 marvel, running on the reliable Fanuc 0M-C CNC controller. However, there’s a catch with these vintage controllers – they lack the solid-state memory we take for granted today. When the backup battery runs dry, you risk losing all your parameters, rendering your CNC inoperable!

To safeguard against such a predicament, a common practice is to back up the parameters. I wasted no time crafting a custom DB26 to DB9 DNC cable for my Fanuc 0M and efficiently read out the parameters over DNC.
