It would have been very helpful if this video would have shown the settings screen at the machine where it has to be enabled. I'm working through this now and keep getting a "Password Too Weak" error even though I've met or exceeded every stated requirement for the password. This would have also been helpful to show in the video.

Congratulation Mark , you are the Haas guru mate , regards from Australia. Cheers

Is it possible to turn Remote Display on by default? Every time I power up the machine, I have to go into Remote Display and hit F4 to open the connection.

[@Idegroncs]

@haasautomation Could you tell us about the Remote Display password rules? I cannot set up any password because the controller says: "password is too weak". I tried everythig. Uppercase- lowercase letters, numbers, special characters... Thank you!

[@arturasnx7575]

and now you need a dedicated network/vlan to protect yours cnc :)

[@cogentdynamics]

I like this feature!

[@sorin.n]

Hello, Is it possible to setup a Remote Net Share of type WebDAV in order to load programs from the network? Thank you!

[@pjotter0]

Nice! Already used it today... I have an estimate when our UMC is finished with it's robot tending.. But now i can actually see if it's finished (or at an alarm...) nice!

[@emersonagustin5761]

do this feature available in haas vf-1?

[@erickuskoski]

Our IT made the machine password protected. VNC does not ask for username or password to the machine. Any tips?

[@johnjamesterbeek]

The video answered my question (read only port 5900 tid-bit), but it would be awesome if I had the ability to feed hold or E-stop the machine from my phone or computer while viewing the control remotely. We've set up webcams to watch the machine run on longer cycles in the past (and it actually saved the machine from some real harm in one instance). If Haas could give users this ability in the future and maybe even integrate a webcam in the machine enclosure/remote viewing, well that would be just wonderful! I would definetly feel better about leaving the machines running on unproven operations.

[@Z0DI4C]

Yeah, I don't know why webcams are rare features on CNC's, other than maybe needing a small spinning window to remove stray lubricant. Seems kind of important for process control and lights-out work. Remote e-stop might be a security thing though, counterintuitively. Haas would need to up their software game.

[@Bigdeanjr]

Is there a setting on the Haas that needs to be turned on in order connect my computer using the VNC viewer?

[@kingcam5028]

can we send program with this as well?

[@tomandyoseli5055]

For some reason I'm getting Error "Timed out waiting for a response from the computer" when I try connecting to either one of my Haas machines. Both have next gen controls. anyone have any ideas? thanks

[@relevanteaglealarms109]

All u can work for CNC in quarantine is just use a Haas control and uses to start the CNC Cycle start by keys in ur laptop. Or you can just prank your Co-workers by doing strange things by changing colors, changing tools and changing the programs and controls and settings in your laptop.

[@hinsyoung6535]

boss it. You guys are simply awesome

[@CMTeamCobra]

2022 Haas VF@SS "password too weak" when trying to change the remote display password, why?? IT cant figure it out either.

[@CMTeamCobra]

Nevermind, figured it out, you can only use the symbols in the description for others who stumble on to this.

i having problems to connect my vf2 to wire network setup. also how to sent & receive programs from NGC to the DNC.

Hi ho how to slow down simulation on graphics mode?

[@Gkn_35]

Could you tell us about the G12 / G13 cycle, please?

AWESOME!

This is so fucked up I want my freedom and I want my son

[@GRTLRS]

One of my machines this works, but on another I get a connection refused (10061) Any ideas?

[@ls3acole]

It seems the latest version of the controls require you to enable remote display and set a password. It should be in the same area as your connection settings.

[@GRTLRS]

@@ls3acole You're right. I don't know why I didn't notice before (but it is kind of off the page). Under network, all the way to the right is remote display. Working now. Thanks

[@GRTLRS]

Well it was working. It seems it has to be enabled again each time the machine is restarted. Still not quite right

I am getting an error computer refused to connect any solutions mark

[@haasautomation]

Sammis VLOG - This may just be a regular issue with your network. Restart the machine, connect it (Settings>Network>Wired/Wireless), and make sure you can “Ping” it from the Windows Command Prompt, example: ping 172.21.16.34 (your IP). If you can’t ping the machine, then it isn’t connected. You’ll need to get your network folks involved. If you can ping it, but you can’t connect to the VNC viewer, there may be a firewall issue on your network. Verify the machine’s IP address and try again. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day

[@azwanrazalimofaraglobal8600]

@@haasautomation Hi HAAS team. I try to connect using RJ45 to my router but the status 'down'. We don't have a server. We also try to connect directly to laptop n the status 'up with obtain address automatically ON' but IP Address empty. if we use with obtain address automatically OFF the status up but still can connect to VNC viewer. CAN YOU HELP USED ON THIS? WE USED THIS FOR TRAINING. THANK YOU

[@M-Tec]

Am I the only one slightly terrified by this? For my one-man shop this is great and I'm going to install it immediately, but I use to work for a government contractor as an IT guy and our security department would lose their minds to find out all of their mills had an undocumented, unsecured backdoor. Even being read-only the ability to monitor what a machine is working on could be considered sensitive information - even within a corporate LAN environment. Great feature, but please add a password to this or make it optional.

[@MotorsportsX]

They would have to break through a whole bunch of layers to get into that data stream... and then, there isnt anything they can do with it other than view your g code. so what? it moves so fast you cant even capture it with screen recorders.

how to permanently activate the block delete function

[@haasautomation]

Przemyslaw Wesolowski - If your machine has the Macros option, you can always add a line to your program to turn Block Delete on. #3032 is used with Block Delete, so #3032=1 turns it on, and #3032=0 turns it off. With any macro, we may have to use G103 P1, and G103 to block/unblock lookahead to make sure the macro is turned on/off too soon. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day

[@przemyslawwesolowski83]

Thank you very much If there is no macro option, you can enable it when starting the machine ?

[@haasautomation]

Przemyslaw Wesolowski - There isn’t a way to permanently lock Block Delete on, on the control. If you want to always skip code in your program, can you just (comment it out)? We can use an M99 with a Pnnn to jump over entire sections of code permanently as well, see: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e5m6l2lsgNenZsU. We can turn OFF the Block Delete function, locking it with Setting 18, but that’s not exactly what you are looking for! If you have a specific task you are trying to accomplish, shoot me an email at [e-mail] and we’ll figure it out. - Mark, Haas Tip-of-the-day

[@przemyslawwesolowski83]

Thank you very much. In previous versions of the software, you remember that block delete is enabled

[@CuscaKid]

This is old tech. But handy if you have a Haas since they always alarm out.

[@cncguru52]

Dear sir can you give whats app group link

[@Num1000Lock]

It would be perfect if it was read/write instead of read only
