Note
- There is no IP setting function for connecting to PLC in Robot TP UI.
- Therefore, PLC should be connected to (default) 192.168.137.100 to communicate with robot.
- You can change the robot IP in PLC control program. (PLC program tested_Studio5000, TIA Portal)
- If you change the robot IP to 10.80.114.200 in PLC control program,
- After that, even if you turn off and on the robot power, the robot IP (for communication with PLC) will remain as 10.80.114.200.
- If you change the IP to Robot TP without changing the robot IP in PLC control program and connect PLC,
- After that, if you turn off and on the robot power, the robot IP (for communication with PLC) will return to 192.168.137.100.
