17.6.1 ABB Robotics<br />
ABB robot controller firmware versions 5.14 and later support EtherNet/IP connections to the<br />
Net F/T.<br />
17.6.2 Denso Robotics<br />
Denso RC7 robot controllers with EtherNet/IP support connections to the Net F/T.<br />
17.6.3 Fanuc Robotics<br />
Fanuc robot controllers with an EtherNet/IP scanner installed can communicate with the Net<br />
F/T. Details about the Fanuc EtherNet/IP scanner can be found in the Fanuc manual FANUC<br />

Fanuc R30iA robot controller configuration. See Section 4.2.4—Advanced EtherNet/IP<br />
Scanner Configuration in the Fanuc manual for additional information:<br />
• Set the robot as the EtherNet/IP scanner (Client).<br />
• In the robot controller’s scan list, set the Connection Type for the Net F/T to Input-<br />
Only.<br />
• For TCP communications, set the Transport Type to UNICAST in order to use the<br />
Socket Messaging. For UDP communications, set the robot controller’s Transport<br />
Type to MULTICAST.<br />
• If the controller’s word size is set to 16-BIT WORDS, then set the input size to 14 or<br />
for 8-BIT BYTES, then set the input size to 28. Pages 4–7 and 4–8 of the Fanuc<br />
manual discuss input and output sizes and how to set 8-bit or 16-bit words.<br />
• The Output Run/Idle header must be turned off (set to Heartbeat).<br />
