Note) FANUC Series 0i-MODEL C does not support the HSSB function. Only the Fast Ethernet function is effective.



There is a limitation of the functions which can be used for the development, by the difference of the CNC Series, Model, Type and series and version of control software.
This "Available CNC" table is made in accordance with the latest version of 150i, 160i, 180i, 210i, 0i , 300i, 310i, 320i, and Power Mate i. Moreover, some functions need the proper function at the control software of the CNC even if the CNC is the latest version. So, the functions which cannot be used for the CNC which is owned by the customer for the purpose of the application development may exist.
Therefore, please confirm the availability of the function at the target control software of the CNC, then go ahead the development of the application.
Especially, please confirm the compatibility for the development of the application for the old model CNC, and availability for the newly added functions.
