Roboguide communication ethernet AB micro850

Hello guys,

I'm building at home a trainer panel based on micro850, and i have the access to roboguide. I want to communicate my plc micro850 to roboguide via ethernet and i would like to know with micro850 2080-LC50-24QWB if it can be configured as scanner ? to be able to end data from plc to robot (I read the user manual and it said that micro 850 support ethernet/ip client/server and modbus tcp client/server as well).

thank's in advance.

Roboguide to AB PLC?

This thread has plenty of information on this topic.

As far as I know, the Micro850 only supports explicit messaging over EthernetIP. So you won't be able to setup the regular Cyclical IO exchange. You can only send messages to a register for example when you trigger that instruction.

HawkME thanks for your answer. So if i dont have impicit messaging on my plc i cannot exchange i/o between plc and fanuc ? if i can do it by explicit messaging, there is any guide or procedure to do it ? I'm very passionate in robotic and automation and i want to learn specially that i have the access to roboguide to test everything in robot .

Thanks in advance
