I noticed a pop up on the ARC today, saying that we could now control our robots with Android. Did I read it right? ??? I can't find anything on the site about it! If this information is correct I'd sure like more details!!!!!!!! Are you going to post details DJ? What app would need to be downloaded? I have a Android tablet; a Samsung Galaxy. Man! That would be beyond awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks,
Lloyd
You can select HTTP Server from the Utility menu. Press the Config button, add usernames. Then exit config menu and press the Start button.
Once you do that, you can enter your IP Address from another laptop/phone to connect too in your browser. i.e. http://192.168.0.100 or what ever your server ip is.
If you are connecting from remote (ie.. outside of your network on the internet) then you will need to read instructions on how to port forward with your router.
Under HTTP Server is my PC's host name.
Port:80
Local: ( my PC'S IP address)
Remote: ( another IP address, starting 98.180. etc.
I then entered my PC's (local) IP address into my Android pad's browser and then get the "webpage not available".
I presume that the objective here is to open ARC on my Android pad. Is this correct? What am I not doing?????????? LOL
You just need to enter the 2nd local address 192.168.1.100 into your Android browser. Make sure you click start on the EZ-B control and it will show a box on your Android enter admin into the box and press enter then you should be away.
Looks like you are entering the wrong ip address
I double checked / I have two IP addresses. One says " Local " the other says "Remote". I do not have a 2nd "local". I tried both in the browser on my Android pad. Now I am getting a " Data connectivity problem" error message. Any ideas?
I presume its asking for my EZ-B forum user name and password (yes/no?) I tried inputting ,first, my user name (Didn"t work) then I tried just my password (didn't work) Then I tried my user name + password;didn't work.
oops; wait...................................... its coming to me..................... The user name from the http server!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can add another user name if you like as well as admin
I'm gonna bug ya tomorrow with questions on the ultrasonic/radar. Perhaps ypou shouldn't reply until after I've made a few posts. (And hopefully resolve the problem.)
Mery Christmas ; Happy New Year, and Happy Holidays to all.
