On an R-30iA without any process IO boards, are there any hardwired inputs and outputs I can use? I saw there are some SOP inputs and outputs that could be tied to user buttons, but i'm not sure exactly where they would be wired to, I'm thinking CRT16 but cant find a pinout for this connector. I need just 1 input and 1 output I can use to tie to a reamer.
Hardwired input / output on basic R-30iA?

Can you use your 'robot' type I/O ?
You have 8 RI and 8 RO that would typically go out to the EE connector on the manipultor arm (if that EE connector was not optioned out.)This [TYPE] of I/O can be split out from the manipulator arm with an EE Splitter board within your Controller Cabinet (also an option) to make it easier to use the RI/RO wherever you like, not just on the manipulator arm.
SOP are internal bits really, and I do not know of a way to make them actually go Out to another device or come In from some other device. SOP's talk to the lights, buttons, and switches on the Fanuc robot front door panel, the Standard Operator's Panel.
If your EE connector is not optioned out, your Robot type I/O are hardwired "to somewhere."
If you already have an EE Splitter board inside the cabinet, it would be a small board (5 x 5 inches) mounted just below the 6 channel ServoAmp (B cabinet size.) -
I must confess that I do not know what that CRT16 connector is for. I would like to know.
Can you post a picture of the top of your Main Board. What is plugged in to the "Honda" connectors? (The same style connectors as JRS 15?)

I can get you a picture later, but CRT16 is where the fault light, estop button, cycle start button, fault reset button etc... are wired into. I have 2 SIs for user button, and 2 SOs for user LED. Figured those would go to the CRT16 connect as well. But alas, even if I did find them, they arn't allowable choices inside the teach pendant programs.
Do you happen to have a part number for the EE splitter board? I can't seem to find it on google.

I will try.
Is your reamer carried by the robot faceplate? If so, the question becomes "do you have the EE connector amphenol on the manipulator?"If your reamer is carried by the faceplate, and if the EE amphenol is present, then you do not need the splitter.
Any more help from the 4 and 5 star members? We need a hero.

?When you were talking about CRT 16, I was thinking of CRT 17 (the light blue connector).
I've never known what CRT17 is used for. No big deal though, I have made it pretty far not knowing. -

Reamer is not carried by the faceplate. For motoman robots, they (our integrators) always run the reamer into robot cabinet and control them by IO on the motoman robot, no PLC involvement. For Fanucs, they always create a seperate reamer control cabinet, have an PLC linked IO block control the reamer, and then a DO just goes from fanuc to PLC, and PLC triggers reamer. Looks like we are just going to have to do same thing on this cell we are building ourselves. Thought about cutting and splicing into the EE wires before they leave robot cabinet (They denied my REQ for the EE splitter boards), but if we ever have to replace a reamer cable or something, will be hard on maintenance guy.
I appreciate the help though, learned a little bit even though I failed to accomplish anything haha.

I learned a bit too. Thanks and good luck.

The CRT16 and CRT17 are used for push buttons and lights of Standard Operator panel. On R30iA controllers, the USER1 and USER2 buttons were removed but the connector is still present on the board.
If you used the in a program, you have to look these signals as a SI and SO -
Hello i am having an issue in Fanuc R30ia controller with R2000IB 165F.i had done wing to EE-K165 connector to my gripper where i am receiving 24vdc and 0vdc from robot.
But when i tried to on R01-R06 there is no 24vdc coming from robot. Same as i tried by giving 24vdc to RI1 its not showing the input in robot teach pendent.
what would be the problem and what is the use of AS-166 Connector.
can i get any help?
