I'm having issues setting up FTP protocol between my laptop and a 30iB controller for the purpose of create Image backups, and eventually Auto backups.

I have tried to use FileZilla, but getting more confused. I'll need help setting up this connection from my laptop or desktop.

I'm able to ping the controller, yet it will not "connect to server".

I've designated the correct IP and port but, everytime I try to connect it says "connection refused by server".

Please let me know what details I can provide to help us navigate this issue, or I'll listen to a new approach without FileZilla.

I'd like to have several different ways to make this connection and perform image backups over FTP, especially for Auto Backups.

Thank you, Community.

You can also just select a "maintenance backup" from the list which will grab all of the binary and ASCII files. It won't grab the image though.

Alternately, you may want to look into backing up via FTP, which is much quicker and also grabs everything that the maintenance backup would get.

Can you please point me in the right direction to setup and use the FTP approach, please?
I don't know how to set this up so that the controller is connected to my network, so I need to start from nothing preferably.

Finally i've used a maple systems HMI.

Have you successfully retrieved string data from SNPX to display the string on a Maple HMI?

If so, please help me figure out how to handle this situation.

I've been working on this for too long and Maple support isn't able to help either, so I'll pay for someone to help with solving this issue I'm having.

Hi,

I have use I and Q but there is other Memory Type like M, G, T, SA, SB, SC, S, R, AI, AQ, W.

Have you decent experience with this Maple HMI PN: cMT3072X S/N: 2204105756?

I can't seem to get the string data from the SNPX registers. I'm sure it is because I've not figured out how to properly retrieve this data on the HMI side.

Anyone, Please, Help?

Tech support hasn't been able to help so far, but not that they are supposed to...

So, I'm having issues getting the data string from Fanuc to the Maple HMI.

The primary issue is most likely in the way I'm attempting to retrieve the data from the Registers that I now have set up under SNPX_ASG.

This method of using SNPX_ASG is supposed to be the way we allow access to string data from the robot.

However, after many different approaches for reading in the data, I still am not able to get any of this data to display to the HMI.

This problem, from what I can tell, requires some decent knowledge of the Maple HMI EasyBuilder Pro software.

Any insight is greatly appreciated, and when we find a solution I'll be sure to post it, since I can't find any solutions online.

I'm even willing to pay someone with the right experience/knowledge to help solve this problem.

Glad to be a member of the community, I didn't realize this was here until today.

Cheers!
