A "standard" machine (i.e. Fanuc, Heidenhain etc.) will use one of the following cable specs:

Note this assumes a Fanuc control with a working 24V supply on pin 25 of its serial port. To use this option it is necessary to open the MDC box and move the input fuse and connect a link. Contact CNC for details. The maximum current you can draw from the RS-232 line is limited so you can only power the MDC box, a single Moxa port and a barcode reader from this source.
