Adding SMC EX600 Sen 3 to Fanuc Ethernet IP

    Hi all.


    I am struggling to get a SMC EX600 sen3 to communicate with Fanuc robot.

    I added all the parameters as per the .eds file for this module but I get the comms light flashing green and get the online or active on the robot.


    Also the MS light flashes green but manual says it either control / PLC / robot is idle state or configuration error.

    I would assume this is as I have no communication.


    Anybody have ideas. Please.

    - wrong IP settings on robot

    - wrong ip settings on module

    - wrong network plug on robot

    - wrong parameter settings on robot

    You should provide screenshots of your settings, hardware and the eds file here.

    What settings did you use? I just commissioned one of these a few months ago with no issues.


    Can you ping the module from the Fanuc? Can you access the SMC web server from a PC?


    Have you confirmed that your input and output sizes are correct? The SMC web server is very useful for confirming the I/O size.


    Here are the settings I used:



    thanks for the help. I had exactly the same settings. Found the problem. Cable was a problem but not completely dead. Was giving half a indication of working.


    Anyway. Thanks for the help
