I'm hoping someone out there can help me.
I'm trying to connect a Fanuc R-30iB with a Lincoln Powerwave i400 through Ethernet, but I can't get the setup to work. I've got the robot, weld set and a laptop with the Lincoln software connected through a switch, and the laptop can connect to the weld set and robot, and the robot can ping the weld set from the host comm settings page.
I've followed the procedure in the ArcTool manual for setting it up, and every time it tries to connect to the weld set to perform the setup I see a countdown and then get a message 'Powerwave not detected'.
The robot and weld set were bought together second hand and are known to have been working together in the past, so all the necessary software options are clearly installed, I'm out of ideas of how to proceed.
If anyone has any ideas or has experienced this before it'd be super helpful to hear it.
