7.1.1. Ethernet Interface Setup

A proper IP address must be set for the Compute Box/Eye Box and the robot/computer to be
able to use the Ethernet interface. The IP address can be configured using DIP switches 3 and
4.
WARNING:
Stop the robot program before you change any Ethernet interface settings.
NOTE:
Configuring DIP switch 3 will remove any previously set static IP address.
To change between modes, first change the DIP switches and then cycle the
Compute Box/Eye Box power so the changes will take effect.
DIP 3 - sets the Compute Box / Eye Box IP address
ON: Fixed IP (192.168.1.1)
•
OFF: Dynamic or Static IP (can be configured via the Web Client)
•
DIP 4 - sets whether the connected robot or laptop will receive IP address from the Compute
Box / Eye Box
ON: DHCP server is disabled
•
OFF:DHCP server is enabled
•
We recommend to set the DIP switches according to either of the two options below:
Fix IP/Auto mode - in simple installations (no external network and/or no PLC connected)
•
Advanced mode - in more complex installations (external network and/or PLC are used)
•
Fix IP/Auto mode (factory default)
Set the DIP switch 3 to ON and the DIP switch 4 to OFF position and cycle the
power so the changes will take effect.
