Software in Action

Test dashboard

Browse test cases, samples, execution status and runtime by module, with access to time ledgers, MTBF, station monitoring, archives and detailed curves.

Arm module	Lower-body module

PLC HMI

The local gateway connects to PLC/CAN devices. The desktop provides test control, power and channel status, voltage/current trends, motor monitoring and local recording.

Run the Software

On Ubuntu 24.04 amd64, prepare Docker Engine, Compose, Python 3 and OpenSSL:

cd software
python3 scripts/configure.py
bash scripts/up.sh

Follow the setup guide to trust the site CA and open the configured HTTPS address, defaulting to https://localhost:8443. The HMI has a dedicated mock mode; source startup and package builds are covered in the HMI guide.

For test preparation, see the common rules and parameter checklist. Download the three Parasolid assemblies from RP1_Test_Parasolid_CAD.zip; STEP files, drawings and BOMs are listed under mechanical files.
