Network settings

Is there any how-to or even guidelines of how to set up robots on a network?
There are 25+ robots connected to the wireless network, but they all say in their system info under IP address "Fix IP address," which would seem to me that it means they are configured incorrectly.
Any help or information would be appreciated.

  • Hi Alyssa,

    The information in the FlexPendant Help available in RobotStudio may be of interest to you, see below.

  • Thank you Henrik! I hadn't found that help page yet.
    So are those the recommended settings? Subnet 255.255.255.0 and Gateway xxx.xxx.0.254?
    Or would the Gateway be whatever the router/access point IP is?
  • This means that they are configured with a fixed ipaddress. Someone has typed in a fixed address using x-start which is the way to setup the ethernet port of the factory network (not the service port on the front).
