Be as specific as you can, and at least, provide the Serial number of your robot. See below some tips in order to collect all required information. |
How to find the Serial number of your robot¶
It begins with “P” and consists of a combination of 20 letters and numbers.
Here are four ways to find it:
Ways | Description | Comment |
---|---|---|
A | It is written on the invoice of your robot. | If you have several robots, you may not use this way as you may have put all the invoices together. |
B | It is written on the box containing your robot. | If you have several robots, you may not use this way as you may have mixed the boxes. |
C | You can find it on a silver sticker on the robot, behind the battery. To see it, remove the four screws holding the battery cover with a Phillips PH0 screwdriver, and remove the battery. |
Choose this method if your robot is turned off and unplugged. |
D | It is also stored in the robot’s BodyId key of ALMemory. Tips: you can use Choregraphe to retrieve an ALMemory key value. |
Choose this method if your robot is still turned on and connected to the network. |
