Assignee: FANUC CORPORATION
Field: Handling (Mechanical engineering)
Classification: CPC B  H | IPC B  H

Claim 0:
1. An anomaly monitoring device comprising:
a power supply;
an Ethernet port;
a non-transitory memory configured to store a program; and
a hardware processor configured to execute the program and control the anomaly monitoring device to operate as:
an anomaly determination unit configured to determine, as an anomaly related to Ethernet communication between a robot peripheral device and a robot control device, at least a state in which a power supply of the robot peripheral device is off, a state in which communication processing in a processer of the robot peripheral device has been hung up, or a state of physical disconnection due to breakage of an Ethernet cable or detachment of the Ethernet cable from an Ethernet port, wherein The robot peripheral device includes the anomaly monitoring device;
an information collection unit configured to collect operation information regarding operations of the robot peripheral device, by using the power supply, at a time of the anomaly and when the anomaly determination unit determines that the anomaly related to the Ethernet communication has occurred; and
an information transmission unit configured to transmit the collected operation information, by using the power supply, outside of the anomaly monitoring device via the Ethernet port to the robot control device, on the basis of the Ethernet communication.
