My typing sucks (2 finger variety).... @Nomad.... you're almost there.... We can pick this up in the morning..... You and JD should get a good night sleep...

@d.cochran... You're the network guy. Most of what I know about this network stuff I learned here on the forum.... Do we really need more of the blind leading the blind here ... lol:)

lol, Its good. this part isnt really networking at this point. He is so close to having jd working on his network. Also, this will be a great tutorial to send someone to if they are willing to read. its basically a start to finish on getting JD setup and on the network. DJ and team are working on a tutorial now as he said earlier. I think some of this information could be really good there.

A lot of the time when writing documentation for things, I find it most helpful to show the documentation to people who are not skilled in an area. I find that they find the things that I made assumptions on. Patrick is a very patient person and a perfect candidate in my book for reviewing the documentation on JD.

This has also given me a chance to see the things that I need to cover in my class as we wont get any of our bots until Roli is ready. It also helps me to know which students to place on which platform first. This has really helped me out. I also have seen things that I didnt know existed in ARC until last night. That is my bad for not staying up to speed on some of the changes that have been put in place, but great to discover.

The last few days have been great for determining what videos and tutorials are necessary. The advantage to having preorder customers on here is we can work out what's needed in tutorials.

We know the robots work great! Now it's time for us to ensure you can also get them working as great as we do:)

goodmorning i wanted to charge the batt this morning and same happen like the other. bolt leds are on red/green and charger gets hot and smelly. what does this mean?

on the bottem from the charger is a explanation what the leds mean.

red is charger gets power from wallsocket green is charging.so bolt must lid up. when fully charged green goes out.

is it the power block for the charger that plugs into the wall that gets hot, or the blue metal part of the charger?

I am about to head to bed, but saw this.

As long as the battery isnt getting warm then I don't believe there would be an issue, but if the power plug into the wall is getting hot, I might be a bit concerned.

I think you will be fine. I didnt notice mine getting hot but I have a different charger that I normally use that I can control a lot more.

Not being able to smell what it is that you are smelling, i have to assume that it is something that is put on the metal that "burns off". I expect that this smell would go away after a few charges.

Good luck this morning Nomad. I hope you get JD on your network. I will check back when I wake up. Just take things one step at a time and I think you will get it in no time.
