repository for software - client and robot


User interface

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.

Install client in Windows

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.

A driver must be installed to get in contact with the robot - see installation in windows

The driver willcreate a com-port when connected - most likely com3. When the robot is disconnected by unplugging the cable, then the client needs to be restarted if it was connected when the cablewas unplugged.

for more advanced installation see installation in windows
