Robot Connection Plan
A documented robot connection plan is important as a first step in your pre-deployment planning. It
serves as a foundation for completion of the rest of your pre-deployment tasks and helps you determine
the number of fogNodes and fogLets you will need for deployment.
To complete your robot connection plan, document:
The total number of robots you will connect.
The total number of robot networks you will connect.
The total number of fogNodes and fogLets you will need.
Note:
Each fogNode can support up to three robot networks since each fogLet placed in the
fogNode can support one robot network (through the S0 port) and a maximum of three fogLets
can be placed in a fogNode. Each fogLet supports up to 20 robots.
Contacting KUKA Customer Support
Since hardware needs are unique to each facility, KUKA Customer Support sends your fogNode and
fogLets order based on your robot connection plan information. Once you complete this plan, contact
KUKA customer support at
and give them your robot plan information.
After the support team receives the information, they will send your hardware order for deployment.
