Introduction

Set up Wandelbots NOVA

Your Wandelbots NOVA instance provides you with a multitude of options to manage cells, write robot programs and simulate physical cells. To benefit from all features, you need to set up your Wandelbots NOVA instance first.

Before accessing your Wandelbots NOVA instance, it is important to note that:

⚠️

Only one personal computer is allowed to connect to the instance's IP address. In case multiple personal computers control a physical robot, e.g. via API and the RobotPad, simultaneously, the robot will not move.

  • Close all applications on other personal computers and try again.
  • Unplug the robot's ethernet cable from the physical instance and wait a couple of minutes to restart Wandelbots NOVA foundation services. Plug it into the LAN port again and try again.

During the first part of the setup, you'll connect Wandelbots NOVA to your physical setup. The second part covers the creation of a virtual cell and its configuration.

In case you want to use a virtual cell only, skip the next step and continue with creating a virtual cell.
