SMB File Sharing

The UNIHIKER comes with samba service, so you can share files on LAN and create your private cloud drive.

With the help of the Windows Network Neighborhood function, you can edit files just like managing Windows files.

How to Enable

You just need to enable the file-sharing function in the Home menu of the UNIHIKER.

PC Configuration

First, make sure your PC can access UNIHIKER’s webpage menu.

  • In the address bar, enter the UNIHIKER’s network address in the format of \\ip address\. The IP address is 10.1.2.3 when you connect the board to PC via USB cable, then enter \\10.1.2.3\. The IP address here is 192.168.199.113, then enter \\192.168.199.113\. After pressing Enter key, you can see the shared files of the UNIHIKER (for the first connection, input the username and password root and dfrobot respectively, and if there is an error, select another account and enter again).

  • Double-click the folder to open it. If you are using the IP address \\10.1.2.3\, you can open it directly. If you use other addresses, you may be prompted to enter an access username and password. If so, enter root and dfrobot to open it.
