Hello,
I have problems with connecting my Laptop with RTDE everytime I try to use the example_controll_loop.py I get the following Error:
File “example_control_loop.py”, line 50, in
con.connect()
File “rtde.py”, line 92, in connect
self.__sock.connect((self.hostname, self.port))
ConnectionRefusedError: [WinError 10061]
If I didn’t get that Error I got connection Timeout right at the start. The Fieldbus EtherNet/IP on the UR is always Yellow.
I tried many diffrent IPs (localhost, 192.268.x.x, 127.0.0.1. and other) Port is on 30004
At the UR5e I have the Network settings on Static Address and tried diffrent IPs there too.
Subnet is on 255.255.255.0
Gatway 0.0.0.0
Can someone explain me step by step how I setup the RTDE connection? I am new to this Topic and didnt find anything spicific that helped.
If you need more Infos just say it.
Thanks
Michael
Found a Solution:
Do not use Fieldbus EtherNet/IP, RTDE uses Ethernet Caple but not Fieldbus (don´t ask me why)
For IP Adress example:
Loop_Controlle: ‘192.168.111.222’
Ethernet IP4: Settings of the Ethernet Connection and change Ipv4 to:
IP-Adress:192.168.111.333
Subnetzmask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0
Preferred DNS: 0.0.0.0
Robot Settings Network: Static Adress
IP-Adress:192.168.111.222
Subnetzmask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 0.0.0.0
Preferred DNS: 0.0.0.0
IP from Robot and Computer need the thrid part the same and the last part diffrent
I hope is was clear enough and it helps, because it took me quite some time to figure that out as a complete beginner.
