Simple OpenICE Setup

Jeremy Ke 9 years ago in OpenICE updated 9 years ago 2

Hello,


I have a question regarding how to connect using the Simple OpenICE Setup.


In the diagram for the Simple OpenIce setup here (https://www.openice.info/docs/6_example-setups.html), You have a MP70 directly connected to the computer via RJ45 -> DB9 -> USB. This makes sense, but upon opening OpenIce and selecting the Intellivue/Serial option, it prompts me for a network address.


I'm a bit unclear as to what I should be inputting for a network address when connecting via serial, could someone elaborate?


Thanks very much!

Jeremy

Hey Jeremy,


This is a known UI bug unfortunately. It has been fixed in the source but apparently not in the downloadable distribution. There is a simple work around for the time being: run from source instead of the pre-built download.


To run from source, download the OpenICE repository from https://github.com/mdpnp/mdpnp and run the following from the top level of the directory:

cd <location of OpenICE>
./gradlew :interop-lab:demo-apps:run


The fix will be reflected in the next version release of OpenICE.


Thanks,

Jeff
