FANUC Robotics PCMCIA Utility 7.7

FANUC Robotics PCMCIA Utility Developer: FANUC Robotics America, Inc.

FANUC Robotics PCMCIA Utility is a maintenance and data‑management tool designed to prepare and manage PCMCIA memory cards for use with compatible FANUC robot controllers. It streamlines offline backup, restore, and file transfer workflows—especially in environments where Ethernet access is limited or when a removable, controller‑ready medium is preferred.

Key capabilities

• Initialize and format PCMCIA cards to controller‑compatible specifications
• Copy controller files to and from PCMCIA media for backup, restore, and program transfer
• Preserve controller‑friendly directory structures and file attributes
• Verify written data and perform basic media diagnostics
• Support typical maintenance tasks such as disaster recovery, commissioning, and archival

Typical use cases

• Creating full or partial controller backups to removable media
• Transferring teach pendant programs, system files, and configuration data between robots and PCs
• Preparing cards for field service and rapid recovery to reduce downtime

Compatibility and requirements

• Intended for FANUC robot controllers that accept PCMCIA media; suitability varies by controller model and software revision
• Windows PC with a PCMCIA (Type II) slot or a compatible adapter; administrator rights may be required
• Use of CF‑to‑PCMCIA adapters may be supported depending on controller and media type

Notes

• The utility focuses on preparing media and moving files; it does not compile or convert program formats
• For exact compatibility, supported media types (SRAM/ATA/CF via adapter), and operating system support, consult FANUC documentation or contact FANUC support
