2.4.1 Master/Slave Connection
A Master/Slave connection works by connecting two robots via a network cable or over a network switch. One
robot have to be selected as master and the other as slave. Selecting one of these cases sets up the IP address
automatically.
CAUTION:
Notice that the IP-addresses
10.17.17.17.18
and
10.17.17.17.19
will be used for mas-
ter/slave connections. Connecting the robots to a local area network may interfere with other
devices having the same IP.
