Hello,

I am looking to doing some IRC5 Compact controller communication with LabVIEW via TCP/IP. Has anyone done this before, or can anyone offer some advice on how to go about finding RAPID functions that do this?

Thanks,
SM

    Hi Steve. I have experienced in the past writing RAPID code to talk to a plc via TCP/IP. Have a look at PackRawByte and UnpackRawByte instructions. The samples on the help manual are quite helpful. Hope this helps!

    ko414du4,

    Thank you for your help! So an additional question, what types of data can RobotStudio/IRC5 accept? LabVIEW can send whatever data type we need, but we need to know what all data types RobotStudio/IRC5 can accept. Do you or someone else have any information on that? Apologies if my question is unclear, I am new to this communication stuff...

    Thanks,
    SM
