Description

The robot EtherNet/IP Adapter connection is enabled but no remote scanner has connected to it. Note that it is normal to see this message when the controller first is turned on since the remote scanner (eg. PLC) might not connect to the robot immediately after the robot has been turned on. The PLC will retry the connection again so normally the connection is made shortly after powerup.

Remedy

Configure the remote scanner (eg. PLC) to connect to the robot. Press RESET to clear alarm. An alarm will be reposted if the connection is still idle.
