Hi Dev,

I'm testing microhard pDDL module.

I read all manual and did it.
 
Here is IP for VOXL.

eth0      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr DA:2C:5D:18:7B:6F  
          inet addr:192.168.168.100  Bcast:0.0.0.0  Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::d82c:5dff:fe18:7b6f/64 Scope:Link

          TX packets:156 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 B)  TX bytes:8196 (8.0 KiB)

Here is IP for HOST

enp0s20u4u1: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST>  mtu 1500
        inet 192.168.168.152  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.168.255
        inet6 fe80::b25c:13b3:5c33:9e6  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>

        inet 192.168.168.237  netmask 255.255.255.0  broadcast 192.168.168.255
        inet6 fe80::dc90:2e27:ecc3:21b8  prefixlen 64  scopeid 0x20<link>
        ether 66:af:0d:e7:31:7d  txqueuelen 1000  (Ethernet)
        RX packets 413  bytes 29899 (29.8 KB)
        RX errors 0  dropped 0  overruns 0  frame 0
        TX packets 472  bytes 66478 (66.4 KB)
        TX errors 0  dropped 0 overruns 0  carrier 0  collisions 0

But, I cannot access each other. I checked ping each other IP.

I think I have to link mater and slave.

I refer to manual for link and powered same time with reset button as like this.

https://docs.modalai.com/microhard-add-on-manual/

But, IP is not initialized 192.168.168.1 or 2 also, pDDL module was blinking tx only. RX LED is alway on.

Could you please send me video for pDDL LINK procedure if you have?

Thanks,

I cannot reach to my HOST from VOXL.

Could you please give me advice?

Thanks

@shlee853 In order for the two Microhard modules to communicate with eachother, one needs to be configure as a "Master" and one needs to be configured as a "Slave". Our recommended configuration is to have the "Master" module on the VOXL and the "Slave" module on the host computer side. The easiest way to check whether they are configured correctly as Master / Slave is to ADB onto VOXL and attempt to `ping 192.168.168.1`. If that is succesful, then you know that the Microhard module on VOXL was configured correctly as Master. You can do the same on the host PC side to check the Slave module `ping 192.168.168.2`. It is likely that one of these two modules has not been configured correctly.

We have the same issue here with the Microhard pairing as posted in this https://forum.modalai.com/topic/251/issue-in-microhard-paring-with-slave-unit. We also tried to follow the instruction but its not paring.
