Title: GE Fanuc SNP driver
Post by: MrPike on February 28, 2015, 07:12:36 PM

Archie, is there any possibility of a GE fanuc SNP(Series Ninety Protocol) driver?  I use GE fanuc mostly in my projects and can get away with Modbus for many of the newer versions, but I do have many older projects that are at a point where the original OIT is failing and would like to have AHMI as an option to replace them.  I attached a link to a pdf that may help if you decide to create a driver.  Thank you.

It's really quite a big task to write a new driver. It takes an average of 2-3 months to fully write and debug.

There used to be an SNP driver that was part of the project. It was a user submitted driver. After version 3.5, when the architecture was changed, it no longer complied and I was no longer to get in touch with the original developer, so I had to remove it from the solution.

You can try to use one the older versions that still had the driver as part of the solution:
