CNC Setups: FANUC 3TF
Hooking up the Fanuc 3TF control to an RS-232 signal is done through a DB25 pin connector located below the tape reader on the control door. G-ZERO needs to be set for even parity, 7 data bits, and 1 stop bit with a recommended baud rate of 1200.
Note: If signals from pins #6, #8, and #20 at Fanuc
3TF are not in use, they need to be jumped together. In the same way, if signals from pins
#4 and #5 are not in use, they need to be jumped together.
