Configuring the EasyVR Commander
Locate the folder where the EasyVR Commander settings are stored. Open any Explorer folder,
copy-paste this text in the address bar and press Enter:
%LocalAppData%\VeeaR\EasyVR Commander
Open the file “Settings.ini” and append the following section at the end:
[AddressList]
Count=2
Address0=TCP:raspberrypi,5555
Address1=TCP:beaglebone,6666
Those lines reflect the above examples of remote systems configuration and expect that your PC
and the remote systems are on the same local network or anyway that the remote systems can be
reached via TCP connection to the specified symbolic addresses (numerical IP addresses are also
supported).
Restart the EasyVR Commander for the new settings to become effective. Now you can choose to
connect to one of the remote systems you just added, as if they were regular serial ports.
