This guide describes how to replace the router with a Giteki certified router in MiR250 robots.

This is only applicable for robots that are running in Japan as the Giteki certification is not required anywhere else.

Things you'll need

  • The Giteki certified router kit for MiR250 from MiR

  • Torque wrenches for the following:

    • 2.5 Nm with a T30 Torx head

    • 1.7 Nm with a T30 Torx head

Kit contents

  • 1 × pre-configured Giteki certified Mikrotik router

  • 1 × aluminum Bracket

Before replacing the router

Step 1: Verify that the Giteki sticker is on the back of the new router. It should have the following numbers:

R: 007-AF0057

T: D170028007

Step 2: Turn off the robot and disconnect the battery. To disconnect the battery, follow these steps:

  1. Remove the rear cover by pressing the two white buttons and pulling off the cover. When removing the cover, un-click the two bottom corners first and then the two top corners.
     

  2. Turn the Battery lock switch clockwise to release the Battery lever.

  3. Pull the Battery lever down to disconnect the battery.

  4. Turn the Battery lock switch counter-clockwise to lock the battery lever again.

Step 3: Remove the right side cover by unscrewing the two screws with a T30 screwdriver and pulling off the covers. When removing the cover, un-click the bottom of the cover, and then pull the cover down and out to pull it off.

 

Replacing the router

Step 1: Locate the router on the right side of the robot.

Step 2: Remove the four screws that are holding the router bracket. Use a T30 screwdriver

Step 3: Label the Ethernet cables connected to the router. You will need to reconnect the Ethernet cables in the same order on the new router.

 

Step 4: Disconnect the five Ethernet cables and the power supply cable, and carefully pull out the router.



Step 5: Add the new router in place of the old one, with the cables going to the same ports as on the old router.


Step 6: Mount the new bracket with the new router.

 

Step 7: Screw the four screws back in, and reassemble the robot. The two screws further inside the robot must be tightened to 2.5 Nm and the two outer screws to 1.7 Nm.

Testing

  1. Turn on the robot.

  2. Confirm that you can access the robots WiFi network:

    • The network should be called MiR_robot_change_SSID if the router is a new sparepart

    • The password should be mirex4you

  3. Ensure the robot can drive and operate as normal.

  4. Change the SSID and password as described in the guide How to change the WiFi name and password on MiR robots.
