AB Factory Talk to Series 90 GE PLC

[SMOKE]

Can any one tell me what Factory Talk driver I would for my HMI to see a GE 90:30 PLC. I actually need to see a Fanuc robot the told me the driver would be the same as the plc.

The name of the serial protocol for GE Fanuc PLCs is SNP (or SNPX). I don't know whether or not Fanuc uses the same protocol for robots. If you're looking to communicate via ethernet, the protocol is called SRTP. Again, I don't know if Fanuc uses it for robots. Fanuc robots are not included in the GE Fanuc joint venture.
