How to use abb_robot_driver with robotStudio

dyu

Hi,
I'm trying to setup this ROS driver to be used with RobotStudio.

1. How can I set up a virtual controller that works with this and has EGM support
2. Where can I find the controller's ip address?

IP address for the controller can be found if you click the ABB icon in the top left then System Info>Controller Properties>Network Connections>Service Port

Thanks for your reply, I got the IP address from the virtual Flex Pendant -> Controller Properties -> Network Connections -> Service Port.

When I try to run "ping <ip_address>" I get "request timed out" messages. To be able to make contact with the driver I need this to work. How can I fix this?

Maybe it is being blocked by a firewall?
