Ethernet Configuration
The Ethernet settings on the computer must be configured to
successfully connect to an ICE device.
In a standard robotic system setup, the IP addresses assigned to
devices are in the range 198.9.200.X. The computer IP address must
be changed to this range for successful connection.
In a non-standard installation where a different range of IP addresses
has been used, the computer IP address must be changed to match
this configuration.
