1.2.2 Ethernet Connection
This connection method uses an Ethernet communication network.
To effect this connection, ensure that the personal computer is compatible with
Ethernet and can be connected to the network.
The robot controller must be equipped with an Ethernet board (option).
Note: Refer to “Ethernet Board” in Owner’s Manual (Installation &
Maintenance) regarding Ethernet specifications.
Fig. 1-3 Location of Ethernet Board
Figure 1-4 shows the configuration of a personal computer teaching system
connected with Ethernet. 10Base2 or 10BaseT may be used for connection.
Determine the connection to the network by consulting with the network
administrator.
Notes: (1) When directly connecting a personal computer and robot
controller with 10BaseT, prepare a cross cable. When
connecting through a hub, use a straight cable.
(2) Multiple personal computers may be connected to the
network, but they cannot establish communication with the
robot controller simultaneously.
