Connecting With The Robot; Robots Connected And Types Of Communication - Mitsubishi Electric MELFA CR750 Series User Manual

6. Connecting with the Robot

This explains the method for connecting the robot controller and the computer.
With this software, you must make the communication settings for each project.
Caution
Please do not pull out the cable while communicating.
Please never pull out the cable while communicating with the robot controller. If the communication
cable is removed while communicating, the status of the robot controller or the computer might
become abnormal. Please remove the cable when the status is not "Online" or this software exited.
Also when communicating by using the USB, please do not pull out
the USB cable until the communication is completed.

The commercial item such as computer and cable
might be unsuitable to compatibility with our
equipment or the FA environments
temperature and the noise, etc.
When it is used, please confirm the operation
enough, because you might have to take measures
against noise such as EMI measure or addition of
ferrite core.
Only CRnD-700
Communicate with CR750-D/CRnD-700 series
controller connected with the GOT via Ethernet by
USB / RS-232.
GOT 1000 series and the Ethernet communication
unit (GT15-J1E71-100) are needed. (*6)
The PLC Ethernet interface module or Built-in
Ethernet port QCPU (*5) is required.
The robot controller must have the "Ethernet
interface" option.
