8.EMBEDDED ETHERNET FUNCTION8.1B-63945EN/03EMBEDDED ETHERNET PORT AND PCMCIA ETHERNETCARDThe embedded Ethernet function can be used by selecting one of twotypes of devices: the embedded Ethernet port and PCMCIA Ethernetcard.A selection can also be made to stop the embedded Ethernet function.The PCMCIA Ethernet card is to be inserted into the memory card slotfor temporary communication.CAUTION1 When using the embedded Ethernet function for thefirst time, set an IP address and other items carefullyas instructed by the network administrator, thenperform a sufficient communication test.Note that an incorrect IP address or other settingmay cause a communication failure on the entirenetwork.2 A unit such as a PC situated in the same networkcan increase the communication processing load onthe CNC even if the unit is not communicating withthe CNC.Avoid connecting the CNC to a factory-widenetwork. Use a router or the like to separate thenetwork including the CNC from the other networks.NOTE1 The embedded Ethernet port of FANUC Series32i-A is available as an option.2 Use the PCMCIA Ethernet card designated byFANUC. General Ethernet cards available on themarket cannot be used.3 The PCMCIA Ethernet card is used for FANUCLADDER-III or SERVO GUIDE.4 Use the PCMCIA Ethernet card just for temporarycommunication as described above. Avoid usingthe card for continuous communication.5 The PCMCIA Ethernet card is inserted into amemory card slot, with a part of the card leftuninserted. When using the PCMCIA Ethernetcard, take great care not to damage the card byhitting the protruding part of the card.When the card becomes unnecessary, remove thecard immediately, in order to prevent any damageto the card.- 602 -

8.EMBEDDED ETHERNET FUNCTIONB-63945EN/03Notes on using Ethernet with Windows CE of FS300is/310is/320is-AWith the FS300is/310is/320is-A, the Ethernet interface on WindowsCE may be used by both of the embedded Ethernet function of theCNC and application software on Windows CE.Note that the restrictions below are imposed accordingly.NOTE1 When the FS300is/310is/320is-A of LCD-mountedtype is used and the PCMCIA Ethernet card isselected for the embedded Ethernet function,application software on Windows CE cannot use theembedded Ethernet port. When the embeddedEthernet port is selected for the embedded Ethernetfunction, application software on Windows CEcannot use the PCMCIA Ethernet card.2 When the FS300is/310is/320is-A of stand-alonetype is used, the connection location of theembedded Ethernet function varies according to thesetting of NC parameter No. 14896. So, therestrictions below are applied to the Ethernetinterface on Windows CE.(1) When 0 is set in NC parameter No. 14896 andthe PCMCIA Ethernet card is selected for theembedded Ethernet function, applicationsoftware on Windows CE cannot use theembedded Ethernet port.(2) When 1 is set in NC parameter No. 14896,application software on Windows CE can usethe embedded Ethernet port and PCMCIAEthernet card.(3) When 2 is set in NC parameter No. 14896, therestriction on item 1 above (for theLCD-mounted type) is applied.(4) When 3 is set in NC parameter No. 14896 andthe embedded Ethernet port is selected for theembedded Ethernet function, applicationsoftware on Windows CE cannot use thePCMCIA Ethernet card.3 When the FS300is/310is/320is-A is used,application software on Windows CE can performcommunication simultaneously on a port (embeddedEthernet port or PCMCIA Ethernet card) selected forthe embedded Ethernet function.- 604 -
