Learning: Foundations, Advanced Understanding, Projects and Tools (Do More), Configuration and Admin

This page will introduce you to all things 'Baxter Admin', from hardware setup, to network configuration, to maintenance routines, to software upgrades.

Robot Configuration

This section describes the necessary robot configuration as maintained by a robot admin.

Hardware Installation/Setup

The Baxter Hardware Installation is largely described in the Baxter Hardware Setup Guide.

Robot Network Configuration

Configuring Baxter's networking is a fundamental responsibility of the administrator. A number of resources are provided which should ease this process immensely.

The Field Service Menu (FSM), accessing the system display screen (TTY3) to view network properties, and leveraging SSH access to the robot will prove to be the most useful resources for this portion of the robot setup.

Software Updates

Regular software updates are provided to all Baxter Research Robot customers. Updates will be announced here on the wiki, through emails to the POCs (Point of Contacts) for each robot, and by announcement on the forum.

Latest Available/Recommended Software: SDK 1.1.0
