5.2 Ethernet Interface setup

A proper IP address must be set for the Compute Box and the robot/computer to be able to use the
Ethernet interface. There are three ways how it could be configured (using the DIP switch 3 and 4):
• Auto mode (factory default)
This is the easiest way of getting the IP addresses to be configured for both the Compute Box and
the robot/computer. It is recommended to start with this mode, so this is the factory default
setting.
• Fixed IP mode (192.168.1.1)
If the Auto mode does not work, use this mode to have a fixed IP for the Compute Box. This requires
a manual IP address configuration for the robot/computer. (This mode could also be used to reset
the IP address to a known value if the Compute Box become unreachable in Advanced mode.)
• Advanced mode (any static IP/subnet mask)
If the Fixed IP address (192.168.1.1) is already in use in your network or a different subnet needs to
be configured, in this mode the IP address and subnet mask can be changed to any value. This also
requires a manual IP address configuration for the robot/computer.
Auto mode
Use the factory default settings (DIP switch 3 and 4 in OFF position).
In this case, the Compute Box has both Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) client,
and DHCP server enabled.
DHCP Client enabled means, Compute Box will automatically obtain ("get") IP address FROM the
connected robot/computer if that is capable of assigning ("give") IP to the Compute Box.
DHCP Server enabled means, Compute Box will automatically assign ("give") IP address TO the connected
robot/computer if that was configured to obtain ("get") IP address automatically.
NOTE:
The assigned IP range is 192.168.1.100-105 (with subnet mask 255.255.255.0).
If the Compute Box is used in a company network where a DHCP server is
already in use, it is recommended to disable the DHCP server of the Compute
Box by setting DIP switch 4 to the ON position.
If no IP was assigned to the Compute Box within a minute, it will automatically
get a fallback IP address (192.168.1.1).
NOTE:
If the Compute Box was in Advanced mode, first reset the IP setting by
switching to Fixed IP mode and then switch back to Auto mode.
NOTE:
To change between modes, first change the DIP switches and then the
Compute Box power needs to be cycled for the changes to take effect.
