I am looking to run the accumove controller wirelessly. I have seen it on Torchmate videos, but I have yet to figure out how to do it.. When I start vmd , and try to run the troubleshooter, none of the buttons are active.
torchmate gs 4x4 accumomove 2 controller,magnetic breakaway with omhic, hypertherm powermax 45 . currentyly running vmd on desktop. want to run wireless via dell xps 13 2in 1. does the accumove controller have a wireless capability or does it have to be configured through a router.
accumove doesn't support wireless natively you'd connect accumove to your wireless switch across lan or connect accumove to a local wireless AP that has a lan input. the AP connects wirelessly to your dhcp server/router i assume your pc is already connected to the dhcp server across the lan. you can disconnect or disable it to ensure reliability if you haven't already and your using the default ip addresses (accumove 192.168.1.7 & VMD 192.168.1.6 or .8) I'd reserve the 5 ip addresses as static from 192.168.1.5 to 192.168.1.9 to make sure the dhcp server doesn't hand out a new address to your PC or gives the static address of the controller to another device which may happen if you power a device up before your vmd or controller. make sure your wireless connection properties at your pc have a static ip address of 192.168.1.6 or 8 (I cannot remember the default for VMD). you can see yours in the connection tab under options
some of this over my head....But my brother is an IT guy...I will show it to him and explain it....thanks for the comments on this
use logmein.com. im running my machine off my laptop at home (like 50 miles away) and i connect to the computer at work and have full controll of the vmd and table. working on setting up a camera on the table so i can see whats going on.
