Calibration and example with Ethernet connection #194

Closed MissingLight closed 9 months ago

MissingLight commented 9 months ago

I am using the Si arm and just start setting everything up. I was able to connect the controller using the Ethernet and ping the robot. However, the following calibration using sawIntuitiveResearchKitSPotentiometersCalibration seems that I must use the Firewire connection. Does this can be done through Ethernet?

You should use Firewire for everything. Ethernet support is not stable enough in this release of firmware (for FPGA V3). I plan to fix it in Firmware Rev 9.
