Wireless connection

Tip

Controller models that support wireless connectivity include AUBO-CB-C, AUBO-CB-S, and AUBO-CB-MINI-S-48V.

Search on the tablet and connect to the robot's WiFi. The default WiFi name is "(AAAA-CCCC-YYYY-)XXXX", and the default password is "12345678". Here, AAAA is a fixed brand name; CCCC is the controller model; YYYY is the production year, month and batch; and XXXX is the last 4 digits of the controller's serial number.

After connection via Wi-Fi, open the AuboStudio APP, select the entry in the [IP List] (or enter the controller's IP address) to connect the controller.

Upon successful connection, the software interface will refresh and enter the [Home] page. Click the [Disconnect] button at the top to disconnect the currently connected robot.

After the software is successfully connected, users can modify the Wi-Fi name and password. For settings of the built-in Wi-Fi, refer to "System Settings - Wi-Fi".
