    Hello,

    I'd like to transfer decimal numbers from an Allen Bradley PLC to Fanuc r30-ib controller.

    The numbers would be less than 200, but would need two decimal points, such as 100.01

    Is there an easy way to receive decimal numbers?

    Thanks

    Well... the easiest is to multiply by 100 (PLC side) and then divide by 100 (robot side).

    Then prepare a group with enough bits for numbers up to 20000 (=15 bits).

    Do you have Ethernet IP on the robot? If so you can use a MSG instruction on the PLC to write a real number to a register.

    Yes I have Ethernet IP, I'll look into this
