Install SRCI app

Visit the download portal to download the latest SRCI app package.

For this setup, there is only one package, see below table.

fieldbus board	app file name
all boards	`SRCI-436b-YRC1000micro.zip`

Naming syntax: SRCI-<data-packet-size>-<controller-type>.zip

The package contains the SRCI app and a build info file. Below is an example for the 436 byte package for a YRC1000 controller:

# example of a package
└── SRCI-436b-YRC1000.zip
     ├── SRCI-436b-YRC1000.out    # SRCI app
     └── build-info.yaml          # build information

Starting from release v0.4.1, we included the controller type in the SRCI app (.out) file name. This reduces the risk of loading an app of a different controller platform. Before this change, it was not recognizable for which controller the app was built.

Installation steps:

Unzip the package and copy the app (.out file) to a FAT-formatted USB-stick.
Mount the USB-stick into the pendant (rear side).
Set the target device: MotoPlus APL. » DEVICE » USB:Pendant
Set target device
View the file(s) on the USB-stick: MotoPlus APL. » LOAD(USER APPLICATION)
List of files on the USB-stick
Use ▼ ▲ » select to select the desired file. The ⭐ (star symbol) now indicates the file is selected.
Use enter to load the selected file.
Verify the installed file on the robot controller: MotoPlus APL. » FILE LIST
List of files on the robot controller
Make sure only one app is shown here. This should be the desired SRCI app.
Apps can be removed using MotoPlus APL. » DELETE » ▼ ▲ » select » enter

MotoPlus license

The SRCI app does not require a MotoPlus license.

The SRCI app only works when the (paid) SRCI option function is activated and enabled.
