Connect mouse to sinumerik 840D

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Split from SINUMERIK 840D.

Is it with PCU 20 or PCU 50?

With PCU 20 you can connect USB 1.1 interface mouse & with PCu 50 you can connect mouse to port PS/2.

Please check.

 Take picture from the back of you control panel --I see you have OP032, it is possible you have MMC103--take picture I will make sure to tell you.

If you really have MMC103, the mouse will need set up--I remember --It will not Plug and Play.

If you have MMC100 I think you cannot use mouse.

Let's see you picture.

SEE PIC, t

I have a sinumerik 840D and I can not find any way to connect a mouse to the PCU, where should that be connected?

Here is a pictures of the back, I think your are right about the 103.

Should the mouse be connected to the rs232 on the front or where are the connector located?

Also how do I find out if my PCU is PCU20 or PCU 50?

You help is highly appreciated.

 1st forget about PCU20, PCU50, they newer version, your one is MMC103, very old.

you can find # 6FC54......, and search by Google or on eBay, you will know what is it.

2nd, I see your MMC103 back --PS/2 connector the one near battery, is connected something, and 9-pin RS232--2nd COM port connected something as well. Normally in old time, there are mouse using PS/2 and com connector, I suggest you find out mouse with PS/2, then connect to PS/2--round connector near battery

if you need mouse, contact me. I have brand new PS/2 mouse more than  10   sets available .PM me.   5 dollars plus shipping--where are you from?

also you can search topic --"how to set up mouse for MMC103, I will need to check my old record.

I did that in 1997.

Hello guys, I see this is an old topic but I would like to ask you experts , how do I set up a mouse in Sinumerik 840d with MMC103. I have 2x RS232 and PS/2 port free , I need to plug external keyboard and mouse. Keyboard only works fine in PS/2 port , mouse doesnt work at all in neither PS/2 or COM port with adapter to PS/2.  I have sourced few different keyboards and mouses with drivers. Mouse doesn't seem to work at all, installed the drivers, but still not success. I can navigate through the Windows in Service Mode with keyboard being in port PS/2 , but once I plug it in to RS232(COM to PS/2 adapter) it stops working so then I can't modify any settings.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you

Thank you very much for your reply. 

I have got a mouse with drivers on floppy disk. I managed to install the drivers but they only problem is , once I plug the mouse into PS/2 port and switch my external keyboard to COM (with PS/2 adapter) it won't work on that port.
