Understanding ABB Robot CC-LINK IE Configuration: A Practical Guide

The following is a complete technical document for configuring CC-Link IE communication for ABB Robot OMNICORE controllers:

Basic System Configuration

  1. 1.Hardware Requirements
  • The controller must be equipped with the 3066-2 communication module (CC-Link IE Field Basic Device)
  • Use the WAN port for network connection
  • 2.Software Preparation
    • Configuration file path:
    1. copy C:\ProgramData\ABB\DistributionPackages\ABB.RobotWare-7.19.3\RobotPackages\RobotControl_7.19.3\utility\service\CSPPLUS
      
      

    • RobotWare version 7.19.3

    Network Parameter Settings

    1. 1.IP Configuration Process
    • IP address (allocated according to PLC planning)
    • Subnet mask
    • Default gateway
    • DNS server address
    • Enter the teach pendant configuration menu → Network → Public Network
    • Four core parameters must be configured:
  • 2.Signal Mapping Specifications
    • The system defaults to a pre-configured 72-byte input/output area
    • Typical signal address allocation

    Project Implementation Steps

    1. 1.IO Signal Configuration
    • Define signals using the IO Engineering tool

    CC_InternalDevice_GI01 // Input bit 0
    CC_InternalDevice_GO01 // Output bit 0

    2. Define signals using the IO Engineering tool
    3. 2.Address Space Optimization
    • Address allocation should increment by 2 bytes

    System Verification Methods

    1. 1.Function Check
      rapid
      copy
      PROC TestIO()
         SetDO do_Cclink00, 1;
         WaitTime 0.5;
      IF DI(di_Cclink00) = 1 THEN
            TPWrite "Signal verification passed";
         ENDIF
      ENDPROC
      
      
    • Verify signal status on the teach pendant IO interface
    • Test signal interaction using the RAPID program:
  • 2.Safety Regulations
    • Configuration changes must be authorized through FlexPendant
    • A backup of the controller must be made after each modification
    • Network parameter changes require a restart to take effect
