  1. What is the recommended method to transfer TP programs from one FANUC controller to another?

    Answer: Use the FILE menu to save/load programs via USB or FTP from the controller

    FANUC controllers have a built-in FILE menu that allows programs, system variables, and configuration data to be saved to USB or transferred via FTP.

  2. In a FANUC cell using PROFINET IO, the robot controller is configured as a:

    Answer: PROFINET IO Device (slave) communicating with a PROFINET IO Controller (PLC master)

    FANUC robots configured for PROFINET operate as IO Devices (slaves), with the Siemens or other brand PLC acting as the IO Controller (master).

  3. Which FANUC feature enables the robot to automatically slow down its speed when a person enters the collaborative workspace?

    Answer: Speed and Separation Monitoring (SSM) via DCS

    Speed and Separation Monitoring (SSM), part of the FANUC DCS safety suite, automatically reduces robot speed proportionally as a person approaches the robot.

  4. When setting up FANUC iRVision for 2D part location, what calibration step is required before the vision process can output accurate offsets?

    Answer: Camera calibration to establish the pixel-to-millimeter mapping for the robot's work plane

    Camera calibration in iRVision maps camera pixel coordinates to robot world coordinates, which is essential for accurate position offsets to be applied to motion.

  5. Which FANUC controller feature allows an operator to monitor and adjust robot program registers remotely from an HMI or SCADA system?

    Answer: Web Server (iRWeb) or Socket Messaging interface

    FANUC's built-in web server (iRWeb) and Socket Messaging interface allow remote systems to read and write program registers, I/O, and status data.

  6. A FANUC R-30iB controller's Error Recovery function (RESUME) is designed to:

    Answer: Allow the program to continue from the interrupted position after an alarm is cleared

    The RESUME function allows the robot to recover gracefully from an interrupted motion by continuing the current program line after the operator clears the fault and confirms it is safe.
