    Hello Everyone !!!

    Hi,

    below a extract of the documentation MARRC75KR07091E Rev L


    The User Socket Messaging Option gives you the benefit of using TCP/IP socket messaging from
    KAREL.
    Socket Messaging enables data exchange between networked robots and a remote PC with LINUX, or
    a UNIX workstation. A typical application of Socket Messaging might be a robot running a KAREL
    program that sends process information to a monitoring program on the remote PC. The combination
    of PC-Interface option on the robot and PC-Developers Kit on the PC is recommended for data
    exchange between the robot and a Windows-based PC.
    Socket Messaging uses the TCP/IP protocol to transfer raw data, or data that is in its original,
    unformatted form across the network. Commands and methods that Socket Messaging uses to transfer
    data are part of the TCP/IP protocol. Since Socket Messaging supports client and server tags,
    applications requiring timeouts, heartbeats, or data formatting commands can provide these additional
    semantics at both the client and server (application) sides of the socket messaging connection.

    For develop Karel, you need Roboguide or WinOLPC to compile your Karel program.

    You need to ask Fanuc support for obtain KAREL Reference Manual
