Connection Diagnostic Skill Functionality

Short answer: The Connection Diagnostic skill only monitors the project's primary/first Connection (the default EZ-B connection - connection index 0 / the main Connection control). It is a diagnostic tool for that primary connection (it uses the 192.168.1.1 ping/diagnostic flow), not a multiEZB monitor for other connection indices.

Details & options

• The skill is intended for diagnosing the main connection (see: Connection Diagnostic docs): https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Communication/Connection-Diagnostic?id=16164
• If you use multiple EZBs in one project, the EZB Connections skill manages extra connections (index #5 through #255). Use that skill to add/connect extra EZBs: https://synthiam.com/Support/Skills/Communication/EZB-Connections?id=16178
• If you need diagnostics for a nonzero connection index you have three practical options:
  1. Temporarily make the EZB you want to test the primary connection (index 0) and run Connection Diagnostic.
  2. Use the EZB Connections skill to connect the other EZB, then run a custom script to test reachability (example below).
  3. Use Network/Connection Troubleshooting docs for specific WiFi/USB issues: https://synthiam.com/Support/troubleshooting/Connection-Troubleshooting

Quick script to check an EZB IP (run in a JavaScript script control)

try {
  var resp = Net.hTTPGet("http://192.168.1.123";, 2000); // 2000 ms timeout
  print("Reachable, response length: " + resp.length);
} catch (e) {
  print("Not reachable or error: " + e);
}

• Replace 192.168.1.123 with the EZB IP you want to test.
• Use print() (not console.log()) per ARC scripting conventions.

How to run/configure Connection Diagnostic (if you need step-by-step)

1. Project -> Add robot skill -> General -> Connection Diagnostic.
2. Open the skill window and press the "Ping EZB" button (it pings 192.168.1.1 and displays the result).
3. Open any skill settings via the three-line kebab (hamburger) menu in the robot skill window to review options.

Would you like me to:

• Walk you through temporarily swapping which EZB is index 0?
• Help make a small script to periodically monitor a particular EZB index or IP and log results? If so, tell me the EZB index or IP and whether it’s AP or client mode.
