Get the regbot.exe from the course homepage, place it in a directory, this directory will be default for configuration file and result files from the robot.
[[Mission]], how to write a mission.


A driver must be installed to get in contact with the robot - see [[installation in windows]]
[[Regbot calibration]] for better performance.


The driver will create a com-port when connected - most likely com3 or any higher number.
[[Regbot maintenance]] for longer life.
When the robot is disconnected by unplugging the cable, then the client needs to be restarted if it was connected when the cable was unplugged (no connection detect in windows).

The user interface can configure and run the robot, as wel as inspecting almost all values on the robot. Written in python using Qt GUI library.
