I was having trouble getting the robot to connect to my computer ( only the camera would work.) so i changed the wireless connection method to be client... now the light on the back is flashing green and I cannot connect at all in any way to the revolution jd.
Just got it for Christmas.. very frustrated all I have been able to do is see the camera work.. nothing else worked.
How Can the robot be reset back to the default wireless connection method?...
Also for what its worth it did not allow me in way to go back once i had hit connect in client mode.. in which I had not even entered the ssid or network password...
Surely there is a way to reset it back to default or something?
Thanks for any help.
Sorry the light is flashing blue when I turn it on.. then when I hit connect inside easy builder it goes solid blue... now though the "my battery is low " keeps repeating.. and since the charger does not appear to work it seems like this unit might be defective.
Does anyone know how I can get a replacement?
Thanks
While you wait on EZ Robot to respond to your warranty request and If your in a hurry and have Amazon Prime here's one that may work with free two day shipping. It's only about $8 USD. Someone else needs to conform that the connections will adapt properly to Revolution Bots.
7.4 lipo balance battery charger
You could also try your local hobby store where they sell RC plains and cars or a Radio Shack.
That on does have the right connections.
However, why do you think the charger doesn't work? (and if you posted already, sorry I missed it).
Long shot here, but where are you located? If you are in the DC/Baltimore megalopolis, I would be happy to meet you and try to help get you running or confirm that there is a problem. I also have some spare servos so we can take care of the smoking one before EZ-Robots manages to get you a replacement.

Alan, B-Frozen 's two lights on the charger both blink when the battery is plugged in. They don't glow steady like they should. Last night (in other post) we suggested that she unplug and replug the unit several times to see if that solved the issue. Dont know if that helped because she didn't confirm but it sounds like it may still be doing it.
Ah, I did miss that. That does not sound good, but the best thing is to check it with a voltmeter rather than relying on the LEDs. We know of some that the green LED never turns off, but still works.

We did confirm the battery is not charging. I just saw morbius's post and I do think that we might be connecting to that IP if that helps anyone.. the big thing now is the battery is low so probably can't even check other options.
Thanks for everyone's input.
I'm sorry how is this listed as answered .. we still can't use the JD
We'll keep following and assist as we are able. I wouldn't expect a reply from your contact-us request until Monday. The office video have been dark all day, so I am sure they are off for the holiday, and they don't "officially" work on the weekends (although they often pop onto the forums, and DJ works all kinds of hours).
