Help with Fanuc R30ia Ethernet ip setup with PLC

    Help Needed!


    So I have have looked at about every post on this forum about Ethernet ip setup and have set it up on a Kawasaki robot no problem.


    I am trying to ethernet/ip connect to an automation direct PLC P1000 as I mentioned I have done this with the exact same model plc with a Kawasaki robot.


    My robot is and Arcmate 120ic R30 ia controller with Arclink Ethernet (Port 2)


    I have set up the Host communication and am getting a successful ping to the plc ethernet port but I am not getting any communication on the ethernet ip side. I also have tried a generic client in the plc and have used a Fanuc ESD file. Along with that i have tried several different IP addresses and subnet mask addresses. I have attached pictures of the setup in the robot and plc. I'm sure that i am missing something but for the life of me i cant figure this one out. Thanks for any help anyone could provide!


    Also the reason I am wanting to do this is for some UOP and Digital signals so i can control through an HMI.



    Also on the Client I have tried using 10.10.1.3 and 10.10.1.2 still no connection and all different types of 1d Arrays 16-32 with no luck




    what is port 2 ip address? Your picture shows port 1.


    Can you back out of the config screen on the pendant and show the ethernetip connection screen.


    Have you tried unchecking that status header option?



    Here is a picture of the ethernet ip config screen. I have the connection enabled here. When i try to ping from this screen I get an error at the bottom that says invalid host


    I'll have to double check but i know port 2 which is the Linconln welder ethernet port is 192.168.34.5 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0

    Also I haven't tried to uncheck the status header check box. I'll give that a shot but i thought i read it needed to be checked. My main concern was if i had it correct with 16 bit 1d arry and 4 elements. Everything that I read in the manual said it needed to be that.

    Thanks for the help i really appreciate it. I have tried using the same IP and i have the ethernet port set up as and it didn't work. I did read that you cant use the same subnet mask on both ports so thats why i change it to the 10.10.1.2


    I contacted fanuc and they asked if i had Option R 507 ASCII Upload Option. I'll check that tomorrow also. I have seen people on here get them to connect so really I just wanted a fresh set of eyes on it to see if my setup looked ok.


    If i cant get this to work i may just end up going with a safety controller that can handle it all.
