Hi,
I'm an amateur in robot programming, and I have totally no idea how or if it is even possible, but there is an issue I have to handle:
We have a Fanuc Robot with controller R30 iA which is connected to s7-1500 Siemens PLC via ethernet, and we have some DI and DO declared but I was asked to make connection between robot and PLC via TCP/IP, because thanks to that we won't be limited to this few DI and DO, and we'll have a lot of available not physical registers which can be used in robot control.
Unfortunately, I have no idea how can I solve this, so if somebody here know where can I find any information about making this kind of connection (some book, website, forum) or had similar problem as mine please - can you explain me how can I do this?
As I said - I'm a total amateur so it would be nice if someone explained it to me step by step.
Thanks in advance.
