BEST Robotics PCSM

To enable automatic operation of the FMS by PCSM, you will need to set a system level environment variable that defines the location that the PCSM application will use to contact the FMS. In an administrative PowerShell window (Run as Administrator), key the following command:

[System.Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable('FieldManagementUrl', 'http://100.64.0.2:8080', 'Machine')

After setting this variable, you must reboot. After rebooting, you may confirm the variable has been persisted by running the following in a non-administrative PowerShell:

[System.Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable('FieldManagementUrl', 'Machine')

BEST Robotics PiSM

The PiSM is similar to PCSM, but runs as a headless process. When running the process on Windows, use the method above to set the environment variable. In all other cases, export the variable FieldManagementUrl in the shell where PiSM is running.
