    Lightbulb Application to connect and transfer data to/from FANUC CNC

    Hello

    Usually CNC are not easy to handle, so I try to do everything (as far as possible) from the PC.

    Particularly FANUC are quite cumbersome to manage while on the other hand they are very reliable.
    I use the PC application "OPEN COMMUNICATION FOR FANUC" to make life easier.
    With the newest CNC I use the Ethernet connection while with the older ones I use RS232C (from same application).

    With mentioned program, besides transferring part programs etc., it is possible to display the CNC screens from the PC !!!.
    This is a very helpful feature but unfortunately it only works on some machines.

    Can someone help me?

    I downloaded the latest version (v50.0) from:
    Open Communication for FANUC Download

    You can also get it from:
    Open Communications for FANUC CNC - Free Download


    With the installation file you can also get the user manuals, but I cannot find any clue on them.

    Thank you for your help.
    Regards

    Juan Carlos

    Hi Juan,

    I've been using USB stick to transfer files to my CNC lathe (FANUC 0i-TD), for many years.
    Now I using the embedded Ethernet, with an FTP server on the PC. It works fine.
    I'll download that soft, and try it ASAP.
    I'll post about it after trying it.

    Ham.
