View source for Template:Connect DCi Robot/TinyCtrl to a Laptop via LAN

To establish a connection between Linux embedded control (DCi Robot) and PC, the Networkadapter of the PC has to be configured for an IP in the address range 192.168.3.0/24. I usually chose IP address 192.168.3.1 as shown below.

*Power off the robot. Disconnect the power supply from mains power.
*Plug the LAN cable into the '''right LAN socket at the DCi robot''' and into your Windows computer on the other end.
*Power on the Robot, disengage emergency stop.
*Wait until the Green LEDs of the stepper motor boards at the back of the robot start blinking.
*Start CPRog and click Connect, reset, enable. The robot should now be ready for referencing, which can be done via the Teach Pendant. However, since CProg is already running, I would now [[Referencing_robolink|reference the Robot in CPRog]] (but that's just personal preference).
