    Hi!

    Currently I have a project that will be using 3 robots (using KR C5 controller) and 1 PLC (Omron NX1P2).
    I plan to use EL6692 as bridge to do a communication between the robots and PLC.

    Beside the communication, the PLC will use EtherCAT to control 3 units of servo motor.

    Is there any problem if I am using this configuration? I want to make sure that the communication will work without any problem.

    You can see the topology here.

    Thank you.

    that is good... it shows PLC side network, KRC side is not shown but it will be same for each robot - connection from CCU.X44 to EK1100 (which is primary side bus for Bridge)

    1) read pinned topic: READ FIRST...

    2) if you have an issue with robot, post question in the correct forum section... do NOT contact me directly

    3) read 1 and 2

    I think for KR C5, the primary side bus for bridge will connected to [KEI] Extension Interface (XF8) right?

    I make a clearer image for the topology.

    I want to make sure again about this, is there any concern about this ethercat topology both from PLC and robot side?

    Thank you.

    you are correct, on KRC5 they call it KEI...

    Thank you.

    I am sorry that I am very new to KUKA Robot and EtherCAT communication.

    This system will work properly both for PLC side and robot side right?
