My EZ-B V4/2 Wi-F Has Steady Blue Light And Say Connection Error

My EZ-B v4/2 Wi-F has steady blue light and say connection error.  Tried reset button but it does not do anything.  I do not have anything connected to the EZB v4/2.  Does anyone know the reason why?

I am using the current free version of ARC.

Thanks in advance.  PS, I hope to be getting a member subscription hopefully by April.

Cheers.

Thanks DJ. However. the video only show how to connect to AP mode of the EZB v4.  I say nothing about getting to the WEB page to change it to client mode,  I have tried resetting the EZB v4 and connect in the current Free ARC but the web page says Can't reach this page when I click on the round looking soccer ball.

@Nick, my IP is 192.168.1.2 and gateway 192.168.1.1 I cannot ping 192.168.1.1, general failure.  I can connect to ARC using 192.168.1.1:23

heh well for some reason port 80 is being blocked so I can only assume it is your firewall (But no no one blocks port 80).  I can only suggest grabbing your phone / iPad / tablet and connecting with that.

Thanks Nink, I used my cell phone and was able to get to the web page and put it in Clint wi-fi mode and it connect to my network and ARC.   Then I disabled my Anti-virus and was able to get to the web page from my windows 8.1 tablet.

Now for some reason when I try to disable my batter is low sound, it stops the low battery sound until I connect to the EZB v4 in ARC, then it starts saying my battery is low again.

I really appreciate all your help.

If I cannot figure it out I my just disconnect the internal speaker.  Although I'm not sure if it will slow the programming scripts down.

Again thank you!

It’s not the video I sent you to. There’s two huge flowcharts with debugging steps for the connection. Here’s the link again for reference: https://synthiam.com/Support/troubleshooting/Connection-Troubleshooting

the reason the battery is low message begins when you connect to the ezb with ARC is because the ARC project has the battery monitor enabled. Disable it in the connection control config menu for the project. Disabling in the web config disabled it on power-on. Disabling it in ARC disabled it during the project.

@DJ. I feel a little dumb, I did not read the opening screen about the connection control and I was looking for the older style configure button.  Not sure why you made a configure button look like windows minimize Dash(-), but it was my bad not reading the whole opening screen. Thank you for the help DJ.

@Nink, Thanks again!

The config is two dots, not a dash. The two dots is a common UI standard for settings or configuration:)

The alternative which was suggested by the company advising the ui change was the hamburger. Which is three lines. Thats another known ui standard. We canned the three lines hamburger because it made the screen look really busy and increased the users cognitive load.

Be careful disabling battery level notification though. It is there for a reason as LIPOs will be physically damaged if they get to low. Maybe you are plugging it into a wall outlet and only have a 6.5v charger but if you then plug in a 2S battery later and the alarm doesn’t go off say goodbye to the battery.

You are so dead on correct Nink ,my EZ robot 6 battery went low and I did not recharge.Next few days I turned on the 6 bot and the voice greeting just barely came on and it made this poof noise as the battery drained to zero. Then the battery case ballooned ,also charger refused to charge ,became garbage just like that!xD
