Hi,
I want to remote a Fanuc Robot R-30iA/B by a HMI ProFace touch Display LT4301. I want to use Ethernet Connection.
Okay, the first step is done. Ethernet Connection works.
Actually I'm able to read/write Robot signals R[1...500], DI[1..], DO[1..] remotely from the HMI device.
Now I want to get access to the remote sinals of my interest, like IMSTP, HOLD, START, CMDENBL, FAULT, PROGRUN etc.etc., which are located in UOP area.
I read the Topic "Calling and starting a program", posted by Bobby Osborne in 2010, which was very helpful for me to achieve my actual state. Thanks to all guys!
I dont understand the idea to redirect the UOP's to imaginary rack numbers (e.g. rack 89 for Ethernet!?), and also this doesn't work. Always I get INVAL if I set this rack number.
System variable $IO_AUTO_CFG is set false as well as $IO_AUTO_UOP. Anything forgotten?
Is there anyone who can explain the mapping strategy step by step?
The Fanuc Manual is written too academically in my mind.
How I will respond the signals after mapping? Which address type? ProFace says R% for R[1..500], %Q for input's and %I for output's.
Please have also a look of the post by lexx905 in Topic "Fanuc R-30iA HMI" by aartimus 2010. Here lexx905 used R%-addresses in ProFace for all the stuff. This means, that all UOP signals have to redirected onto R[]-registers in robot. Am I right? How to do it?
Can anyone support me? Thx in advance..
