Roborun Frame, Tab and Menu Descriptions
The Roborun screen contains the four main set of commands and information frames
described below:
1- Program Revision Number
This is the revision and date of the Roborun utility. It is recommended that you always ver-
ify that you have the latest revision of the utility from Roboteq’s web site at
www.roboteq.com
2- Controller and Communication Link Information
This frame will automatically be updated with an indication that a free communication port
was found and opened by the utility.
If no free communication port is available on your computer, it will be indicated in this win-
dow. Try to select another port using the “Change COM Port” button or try to free the port
if it is used by a different device and program.
With the port open, Roborun will try to establish communication with the controller. If suc-
cessful, this window will display the software revision, the revision date and a set of digits
identifying hardware revision of the board inside the controller.
