Chapter 5: Connectivity
Most of the connections that are available to the user are in the payload bay, which is the
space between the platform and any payload structure placed on top of it. These include I/O
and power connections. Some are required; others are available if needed. The two exceptions
are the Joystick port, and the Maintenance Ethernet port, which are located under a small
access panel on the left side of the Lynx platform, in the upper-right corner. Both of these ports
have a second, connected port inside the payload bay. See Figure 8-1.
5.1 Required Connections
l
Joystick port In order to generate maps with the Adept Lynx platform, you need to
connect a joystick to its Joystick port.
The Joystick port is located under a small access panel on the left side
of the platform, in the upper-right corner.
This is internally connected to another Joystick port in the payload
bay.
l
Maintenance
Ethernet
The Maintenance Ethernet port is located under a small access panel
on the left side of the platform, in the upper-right corner.
Its IP address is 1.2.3.4, with Netmask 255.255.255.0.
Access to the SetNetGo OS is always enabled on this interface, and
does not require a password or a license.
This is internally connected to another Maintenance Ethernet port in
the payload bay.
l
Wireless
Ethernet
For multi-AIV installations, or where you wish to send new com-
mands or receive status updates from the AIV, you need to have wire-
less Ethernet.
l
Docking
Station
The AIV needs access to a docking station so it can charge itself. The
docking station needs access to AC power.
5.2 Payload Bay Connections
These connections are available for use with Adept- and user-supplied accessories. The anten-
nas and joystick come with the platform.
NOTE:Standard connectors, such as Ethernet and audio, are not covered here. This
includes all of the connectors on the right side of the core, shown in the following
