Hello community,

I have a 4.0 Learning Factory model with 4.6.6 firmware controllers. I have installed Eclipse C++ and also have Linaro. My problem is that I'm quite new in this world so I don't know how to proceed. How can I get the binary files to upload them to the TXT controllers? I'm not used to Eclipse and still don't understand it.

Thank you very much,
Ruben Louwagie

You are starting with a complex piece of software. I hope that the next suggestions are helpful for you.
In the Learning factory model are coming a lot of things together.
Basic C/C++, C++11 (for example threading), OOP. and technologisch like: MQTT, OpenCV, SPDLOG, fischertechnik TA (transfer area), Berkely-socket communication, XML/JSON technology,
Embedded programming.
The objectif for the Learning Factory model is higher educational level.

Uploading binary files has been describe in: the accompanying documentation. Maybe it could be better to start with reading and studying the documentation first.

I could be also usefull to creae Putty (remote console) and FileZilla connection (sFTP client).
(Both are running under the ROBOPro TXT account)

Without good experiences, it could be advisable to start with:

• To study and understanding the basic examples for local TXT programs:
  https://github.com/fischertechnik/txt_demo_c_download

• And after this:
  https://github.com/fischertechnik/txt_demo_ROBOPro_SLI

The Learning Factory model software is cross compiling very well with the Eclipse workbench.
However probably you will need to resolve some setup problems.

Have fun,
