Hi
I have a Abb S4c+ IRB 140 M2000 and I have several sc4 robots and im trying to connect to a vision camera cognex ethernet
I study this week about Abb connections and I was surprise to see that s4c+ don't have a simple ethernet connection.
I can connect ethernet to the service and make a backup. But the other port I can t do nothing.
I decide to connect by Rs232, but the problem is the camera only have ethernet connection.
Questions :
1- The cable for rs232 is null, no handshaking needs ?
2- In S4c where do I connect the serial port for the rs232 ?
3- In S4c why is an ethernet port in DSQC 336?
4- In S4c+, I have a service ethernet for the backup, and the other ethernet what is the function ?
5- Open socket is only available in IRC5 ?
6-What is the diference in WriteStrBin / Write ? What do you prefer ? can the hyper terminal reads boths ?
7- if I connect the robot in rs232, how can I connect to the ethernet camera ? With a rs232/ethernet conversor ?
8-what is the simplest program and way to test the rs232 connection ?
-cable null
-Robot program
Close pcComm;
Open "COM2",pcComm\Write;
Write pcComm,”demo”;
Close pcComm;
-Pc - windows hyperterminal
9-When i connect to hypertminal and run Abb program line by line , each line , a lot of message shows in hyperterminal display .
Close port - a lot of messages
Open "COM2",pcComm\Write; - a lot of messages
Write pcComm,”demo”; - a lot of messages , but the word demo don’t show
Thats correct ?
Thanks
