IGUS robot with Siemens API

Hi,

I'm not sur it's the good place to talk to that but,

I am a young French robotics integrator and I have a learning project to integrate an IGUS robot with a Siemens S7-1500.

I have already communicated on ModBus TCP between 2 APIs but never with an IGUS robot.

Has anyone ever connected or communicated a robot with a Siemens PLC?

I found ModBus registers on the Internet.

What address should I write to my MB_Client in TIA Portal V16 if I want to use a bit to start a program of my robot?

And what is the address in IGUS Software?

Cordially,

Hi, it's a IGUS RL-DP-4 robolink.

Yes I got it. But in this manual, he don't explain about the IGUS Software configuration.

I'm searching the variable address to enter in condition for example in a " IF... Then... Else ".

No... My IGUS robot don't use profinet protocol if I remember

I confirm you later.

Hi,

Yes I'm sure my PLC can use ModBus TCP. And I have the ModBus in my robot.

Quote from panic mode

Are you sure your PLC can use Modbus? The only way two devices can talk is when they use same language.

Hi,

I have a new question ! Could you say me is it possible to send coordinates from Siemens to the robot ?
