Using only KUKA youBot arm
If you are using only the KUKA youBot arm you should connect the ethernet cable to the port on the right (close to the on/off button), as shown below:
Please remember that when you are connecting only the arm you have to change the Joint topology in youbot-manipulator.cfg file accordingly.
Using only KUKA youBot base
If you are using only the KUKA youBot base you should connect the ethernet cable to port ehtherCAT1, as shown below:
Using KUKA youBot base with two arms
If you are using KUKA youBot base with two arms you should connect the Ethernet cable to the remaining port on the second arm.
