I have some questions? I have a G&L that has a bad tape reader, can I use this software to load programs?

Check your cnc. Many have 2 ports inside - one connected to the tape reader and another connected to a 25pin D`type connector somewhere on the body/case of the CNC/control.
If the CNC doesn`t have an external RS232 connector the many tape readers have an RS232 connection to the CNC - Usually a 25pin D` type connector inside the control panel.
If you can unplug the tape reader from the CNC/Control and plug a cable from the computer into the CNC.
If you have an RS232 then you probably can use easyDnc.
It`s a free trial so no harm in trying. There`s an auto=port scan capability which often makes setting up and testing quite quick so probably won`t take too long to try it.
