Communications network interfaces
This section describes the network interfaces for the communication system.
The communication adapters communicate with each other and with the robot via a network.
Each communication adapter has three network interfaces, two for communications between
the adapters, and one for communicating with the robot:
• communications between the adapters
º wired network interface
º radio interface (for radio model of adapter)
• communications between a communication adapter and the robot
º robot interface

Each of these interfaces requires IP settings (IP address, subnet mask, and gateway) to be
configured. These settings can be configured manually using the command line interface (CLI).
