EtherNet/IP Communication Setting Process

The following roughly explains the process of EtherNet/IP communication connection setting.

1

Perform the EtherNet/IP communication connection setting on the robot controller side.

1. Register the license number in robot controller.

2. Install an EtherNet/IP Adapter board in the expansion slot on the robot controller.

3. Set the communication parameters on robot controller.

For details, refer to the "ETHERNET/IP ADAPTER BOARD MANUAL" of DENSO ROBOT USER MANUALS.

2

Perform the EtherNet/IP communication connection setting on the PLC side.

1. Start "STUDIO 5000 Rev30" and configure PLC-related parameters (IP address, etc.).

2. Set the communication parameters for robot controller (IP address, Input size, and Output size).

   A "Controller Tag" is automatically created when a communication parameter is set.

3. Transfer a created project data to a PLC.

3

Check if the EtherNet/IP communication is performed properly.

1. Check the communication status of EtherNet/IP.

2. Check if the data has been sent and received properly.
