Posted 8 Mar 2016 Hello, I am a student currently working on a project involving Ge Fanuc. We have not learned anything about this controller however I have a strong backround in many other PLC's(Allen Bradley,Omron,Siemens). I would like some help configuring this device. I have read the manual for the fanuc controller and I have added all the modules and power supply; however, I am not able to download I have checked the ethernet setting on the controller module and I have had no luck. I have some knowledge of networking so I have choosen thr correct: IP,Subnet and Default Gateway. If you have any information that may be helpful please reply. (I am using cpu 364 if thats helpful).

Posted 8 Mar 2016 (edited) If this is the first time connecting you should use the "Temporary IP Utility" in Proficy or use a Serial cable to download the Hardware config to the PLC. Is your PC on the same network as the PLC? Did you tell Proficy ME the IP address of the PLC in the 'Properties' of the 'Project'? If you can 'Ping' the PLC from the PC the above is all that is needed. Edited 8 Mar 2016 by RussB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 8 Mar 2016 Yes the PC and PLC are on the same network. I have pinged the PLC to begin with however, it doesnt let me work online I belive its beacuse I do not have the name server ip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
