Updating Robot/Sensor Configurations
Guide to add or update the robot or sensor configurations in the ER Command Console
With the introduction of singular cortex devices, we have released the Extend Robotics Command Console, a web interface connected to your cortex device as well as the Robots and Sensors. It has built-in functionality for updating the robot and sensor configurations and settings.
For hardware delivered with version 9.3 or earlier, you must contact support@extendrobotics.com so we can set up your Command Console account, allowing for seamless configuration updates.
This page consists of two sections which can aid you in updating your robot and sensor setup:
1. Add new or Edit the setup of Robots and Sensors 2. Load a previous Setup onto your device
Add new or Edit the setup of Robots and Sensors
1. Login to the Command Console here, and you should be redirected to the Dashboard.
2. Click Manage your device for the device you want to update configurations. Note that the device must be online and connected for any changes to take effect.
3. Click on Edit Setup
4. Here, you can update any fields on pre-existing robots or sensors.
5. You can also create and delete robots or sensors as you wish
6. When you have completed making all your necessary changes, you can click on Save
7. After updating the configurations, you can select whether to reboot your device. The Cortex device must be rebooted for the new robot to load. You can Download your Configurations if your Cortex device is offline or Apply them directly if the device is connected to the internet.
