The FANUC CNC driver consumes around 35 Mbytes of RAM. If you have memory constrained systems, then review your resource availability before incorporating this driver in a solution.
The FANUC CNC Driver allows you to connect to FANUC CNCs that have embedded Ethernet or an Ethernet Board. The driver utilizes FANUC’s Focas library over Ethernet (TCP/IP). This guide describes how to use the FANUC CNC driver.
