Hello folks,
We're trying to set up a Fanuc AM 0iB robot with a R30iB Mate controller for an ArcWeld application with a Fronius welding generator. So far, so good.
We've got a Siemens S1200 PLC with ProfiNet as a center for the cell.
The problem we've run into is in trying to set up the ProfiNet communication between the PLC and the robot. While we can see the robot fine and dandy on the network, and we use the most recent GDSML file from FANUC, we still can't actually communicate with the PLC.
On the robot's side I can see at the ProfiNet device configuration the error: Connection never established, never tried...and no option to do anything about it. I'm having issues navigating the ProfiNet setup interface that came with this particular robot.
If I can provide other information by which someone could help, please let me know. We're against the clock with this project and this communication issue is holding us back...
