NOTICE
We discourage using the robot interface to control robots connected to
MiRFleet. You should only use the robot interface in the following situations:
• The first time you add a robot to MiRFleet. Use the robot interface to
activate the correct site and to position the robot correctly on the map.
• When adding markers or mapping. Use the robot interface to generate new
maps or to detect markers.
3.2 Network requirements
This section describes the network requirements for MiR Fleet PC.
For more details on network requirements, contact your distributor the MiR
Network and WiFi Guide .
MiR robots require a constant, stable network connection for MiR Fleet PC to function. An
unstable connection can lead to missions and resources not being assigned to robots, causing
deadlocks and idle robots.
MiR Fleet PC must be connected to the network through Ethernet and must be in the same
physical location as the connected robots. Geographical distance will cause delay between
the fleet and the robots.
The network should be capable of containing all robots, the fleet, and required devices. If
there are enough IP addresses available for all devices, the network can be used.
Wireless LAN
The requirements for the WLAN are:
• Minimum bandwidth of 1 Mb per robot with a maximum latency of 150 ms. The network
should be monitored over time to see how the bandwidth is affected during normal
working hours.
