Connecting Brookstone Rover To ARC Questions

Hi all,

I am trying to connect my Rover v1 to ARC. I have tried two different ways:

  1. Connect the rover to my wifi on the computer first. When I tried this the network symbol has the yellow triangle with the black line appeared. I then opened ARC and added the Rover, selected v1 and press connect. I then get this message:

EZB 0: EZB 1: EZB 2: EZB 3: EZB 4: 12/09/2014 10:11 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:11 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:11 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:11 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:11 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:11 PM - System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array. at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.() at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.Connect(RoverVersionEnum version) at EZ_Builder.UCForms.FormBrookstoneRoverMovementPanel.(Object , EventArgs )

  1. I have tried to leave my wifi connection on to the computer, opened ARC, add the robot and press connect. This freezes ARC and when it responds I get this message: EZB 0: EZB 1: EZB 2: EZB 3: EZB 4: 12/09/2014 10:13 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:13 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:13 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:13 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:13 PM - TCP Server stopped 12/09/2014 10:13 PM - System.Net.Sockets.SocketException (0x80004005): A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 192.168.1.100:80 at System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient..ctor(String hostname, Int32 port) at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.() at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.Connect(RoverVersionEnum version) at EZ_Builder.UCForms.FormBrookstoneRoverMovementPanel.(Object , EventArgs )

Have you turned off Windows firewall.I had issue with connecting my tablet to my computer with the http server from ezb control option.Are you using ezb 3 or v4?

No I don't think so. How do I turn it off I am only new to it. I think I am using v4.

Thanks

konradmx what pc do you have

#4  

It's really easy to tell the EZB4 and EZB3 apart... If you bought your ezb controller just recently then it will be the V4... Below is the v4...

The Brookstone Rover module has a bug while we are adding support to v2. I didn't notice it until this message. I'll do a new release for the v1 users tonight or tomorrow.

See DJ's message just before yours. He accidentally broke support for Rover v1. He'll be releasing a fix soon.

Hello this is me Pyae Phyoe again can i get old version ezbuild which can connect v1 brookstone rover ? cannt connect with current version

#17  

Hello,

Looks like I'm in the same boat as everyone else.

Same kind of error:

System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array. at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.() at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.Connect(RoverVersionEnum version) at EZ_Builder.UCForms.FormBrookstoneRoverMovementPanel.(Object , EventArgs )

Like pyaephyoe mentioned, is there a way we can access an old version of the software? I just got a rover and am itching to try out the software.

#19  

I have version 2014.12.09.00 and I can't connect with V1. Any help?

#20  

@Savall21

it hasn't been fixed yet, it's as simple as that:P

#21  

Ok, how about the most recent version where it worked?

#22  

Maybe by an off chance a collecting soul on here has all the back issues of ARC, otherwise I think your SOL I'm afraid...
