Fanuc A06B-6079-HXXX over 21i-MA controller

**Alamgeer** · 08-18-2019, 02:35 PM

Hi guys, Is there a way to link Fanuc A06B-6079-HXXX with Fanuc 21i-MA controller? As 21i has a HSSB link but 6079 doesn't. I heard there is a card in market that can communicate 6079 series amplifier over HSSB link. Is it true? If yes can I have a part number for that?
Your help greatly appreciated.

A20B-2100-0740 But this by no means is Fanuc LTD approved. (Sorry not for your drive)

Thanks for response, but I'm looking something else. I want to use same 6079 control card with additional add-on to connect 6079 via HSSB.

Hi drdos,
I just found A13B-0154-B001 optical link would be the option to connect 6079 with 21i-MA. But do not know more about it. One of forum member used A13B-0154-B001 in Fanuc 16C but don't know the purpose of that. I also asked same question with him let see what I get response. Your help greatly appreciated. If we can't use A13B-0154-B001 with Fanuc-21i, Can I used it with Fanuc 16-MB to control 6096 series amplifier?

The A13B-0154-B001 is used for the I/O LINK (Inputs and Outputs to the PMC). When the I/O link cable needs to be long then we use this so signal quality isn't lost. I never heard of anyone using it for what you want to use it for. Also, not sure that your servo software will support the older drives.

I just found 6079 and 6096 have a same base module board, it just have different interface, have a look on attached pdf page. There should be something to communicate 6079 with Fanuc 21i control.
