NOTICE
We discourage using the robot interface to control robots connected to MiR
Fleet. You should only use the robot interface in the following situations:
• The first time you add the robot to MiR Fleet. 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.
2.2 Network requirements
This section describes the network requirements for MiR Fleet PC.
See the MiR Network and WiFi Guide on the distributor site for more details on
network requirements.
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 robot. 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 on
the same subnet. 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 Mbit 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.
