Fanuc ISO Protocol communication settings: (E,7,X)
The standard protocol for Fanuc controls is 4800 or 9600 Baud, Even parity, 7 data bits and either 1 or 2 stop bits (XON/XOFF, PUNCH ON/OFF). This is standard setting that will work in most conditions. Depending on environment and cable type and distance to DNC if used.
