3.3 Communication Parameters
This section describes the setting of the Ethernet parameters. These settings are
defined in the Ethernet Parameter File (ETHERNET.PAR).
[E00] Open mode
[E00] Open mode IP0 IP1 IP2 IP3
{ 0: non 1: Robot is TCP server 2: Robot is TCP client }
= 1 0 0 0
IP0 is for simple protocol only, and so the server mode must be specified.
If the external device is a server, the controller uses client settings, and if the external
device is a client, the controller uses server settings.
=(IP0) (IP1) (IP2) (IP3)
This enables or disables the Ethernet function.
0: Not used
1: Operates as a server
2: Operates as a client
[E01] Robot controller IP address
[E01] Robot controller IP address
= 192.168.0.124
This sets the IP address of the robot controller itself.
The IP address is an address for identifying the controller. It is expressed as four (4)
numbers from 0 to 255 with a period (.) in between. If the controller is connected
directly to a computer on the network, the IP address may remain at the initial value
(any setting), but if it is connected to a LAN, the IP address must be set by following the
instructions of the user's LAN system administrator.
properly if any IP addresses are duplicated. The robot controller and computer to
communicate with it must be connected on the same network.
When sending data to devices on the network, the controller can be operated as a
client or a server.
