What You Need

Cat6 Ethernet cableIncluded in kit

Flowstate CL260 edge nodeIncluded in kit

Customer provides:

1
Locate UR Controller network port
The UR controller (e-Series) has a standard RJ45 Ethernet port on the front panel. All e-Series cobots (UR3e through UR30) share the same controller interface.
2
Connect Ethernet
Cat6 from the controller Ethernet port to the Flowstate edge node. Assign a static IP in the robot network settings.
3
Set static IP
On the Teach Pendant: Setup > Network > IP address. Set a static IP in the 10.0.100.x range.

1
Enable RTDE interface
RTDE is enabled by default on all UR e-Series robots (port 30004). No configuration change needed. It provides real-time joint data, TCP position, and program state at up to 500 Hz.
2
OPC-UA (optional)
UR robots with Polyscope 5.8+ support OPC-UA on port 4840. Enable under Settings > System > Network > OPC UA Server.
RTDE provides richer real-time data. Use OPC-UA for higher-level status integration.

1
Test RTDE connection
From the edge node, connect to the robot IP on port 30004. The Flowstate RTDE client will read joint angles, TCP speed, force, and program state.
2
Dashboard check
Cobot appears in Flowstate with joint temperatures, TCP force, cycle count, and program state.
