SUMMARY
Synapse is adding support for Epson manipulators, starting with the CX4-A601S six-axis arm on the RC800-A controller.
COMING SOON
Epson support is not yet available in Synapse - no Python class or connect()/disconnect() yet.

| Model | Controller | Class | Status |

| CX4-A601S | RC800-A | - | Coming soon |
Hardware Setup
1. Connect and ping the controller
RC800-A factory defaults:
| Setting | Default |
|---|---|
| IP address | 192.168.0.1 |
| Subnet mask | 255.255.255.0 |
| Gateway | 0.0.0.0 |
Connect an Ethernet cable from your PC to the controller, set a static IP on your PC in the same subnet (e.g. 192.168.0.2), then verify:
bash
ping 192.168.0.1 # or your controller's configured IP2. Enable remote control in Epson RC+
With Epson RC+ installed and connected to the controller, enable remote/TCP control so external programs can command the robot. Menu labels vary by RC+ version - see the official RC800-A Controller Manual and RC+ Remote Control option reference for exact steps.
