Hello everyone!

I would like to build a cable for communication between PC and MMC to monitor LADDER online.

I already have the card, I also have the cables in the db9 to db25 and db25 to db25 cable settings.

I saw that there is a db9 cable setup for PCR-20. It uses a Honda PCR-E20FS connector. I have the Fanuc code, but I don't know if I can post it here due to copyright, according to the previous post.

I would like to know if you have already communicated using this PCR-E20FS configuration?

And which port do I use to communicate with the machine?

Thank you in advance for your attention and help!!!

Hello there.
What control type/series are you working with?
What card are you referring too?
What Fanuc PC ladder software do you have?

Hi,

I work with Series 18iT, but this setting cable cannot communicate with other series?

I referred to the card and the other cables to pass information that I already have these cables.

And I am using the FLADDER 3.

Most new series use the imbedded ethernet to communicate with Fapt Ladder.
The serial communication is limited dependent con control series as well as software versions and ladder type for the pre 30 platform.
With the 21i if it has imbedded ethernet use that. Otherwise refer to the chart in the Fapt ladder manual to determine if the online function is available .

It's strange, because I've seen the configuration for this db9 cable for pcr-20 in the Fanuc manual. But I didn't find in the manuals how to use this cable, or which port to use.

I asked some experienced people and they never used this cable as it is more usual to use pcmcia memory card.

I want to mount this cable because we have some old machines that are already having a problem on the db25 port. So if you don't have a pcmcia memory card or we have card port problems, this pcr-20 cable would be our last choice.

You can use the serial interface with Ladder 3 for certain functions. The "Online Function" is only supported by certain PMC types SA1 and SA2 for example do not support online function. SB3 and SB4 will support online function provided the control exec version is high enough.

For the cable.
Connector JD33
On the PMC side Under Online or possibly Monitor select RS232 "USE" and set the com parameters to match the PC settings.
