Network Configuration

The onboarding wizard‘s Network step sets the robot controller’s IP address and DNS servers for external communication. You can configure exactly the same settings directly in PolyScope, without the wizard. As these are standard Universal Robots PolyScope X screens, always refer to Universal Robots’ own user manual for the most up-to-date and complete instructions.

Note

Changing network settings requires the admin password. See Set Admin Password if you have not set one yet.
