Error Connecting To Spy-C Tank

User-inserted image

I am trying to connect to Logicom Spy-C tank (which belongs actually to the AC13 rover family) from "Brookstone Rover" panel.

When I click on "Connect" button the tank makes a brief initialization noise with its camera motor and then I see an error message in ARC:

Rover Error: System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: Ein Verbindungsversuch ist fehlgeschlagen, da die Gegenstelle nach einer bestimmten Zeitspanne nicht richtig reagiert hat, oder die hergestellte Verbindung war fehlerhaft, da der verbundene Host nicht reagiert hat. ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: Ein Verbindungsversuch ist fehlgeschlagen, da die Gegenstelle nach einer bestimmten Zeitspanne nicht richtig reagiert hat, oder die hergestellte Verbindung war fehlerhaft, da der verbundene Host nicht reagiert hat
   at System.Net.Sockets.Socket.Receive(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size, SocketFlags socketFlags)
   at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size)
   --- End of inner exception stack trace ---
   at System.Net.Sockets.NetworkStream.Read(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 size)
   at System.IO.Stream.ReadByte()
   at EZ_B.BrookstoneRover.Connect()

I am using ARC version 2013.12.02.00.

If you neet some extra information please teach me how to get it from the rover.

I can access tank's web interface using http://192.168.1.100/ address and am able to log in with AC13/AC13 credentials, but can't do anything else because this interface offers read-only capabilities.

Scanning tank's ports brought me nothing.

Cool! While you are on it, would you consider allowing to parametrize the connection to the rover2? The difference between the rover 2 and the spy-c is just one word in the blowfish key used to sign the connection to the tank ( you can check in the repos I posted earlier in this thread). If I can help you with anything, I'm more than happy to!

Cheers,

I agree with Josh. I picked up a Happy Cow i Spy tank the other week, it was easy to gut and fit the EZ-B V4 and H-Bridge in to it, and even use the original 6xAA battery compartment and power switch.
