Setup

The computer running Artisan must be on the same IP network as the roaster. The default IP address of the roaster is 192.168.2.32. Configure your computer to use a static IP address in the range of the roaster (192.168.2.x) but with x different from that of the roaster (eg. 192.168.2.42). Choose 255.255.255.0 as subnet mask.

This can be done on Windows using the Network Sharing Center by adding a TCP/IPv4 Local Area Connection with those properties. On macOS you set your ethernet port in the Network Control panel to “IPv4: Manually” and fill in the IP and subnet mask accordingly.

Watch out! Artisan comes with two machine setups. The one named RM legacy works with older machines that return data without decimals while the one named RM works with the newer machines that return data with decimals.

Watch out! Artisan doesn’t monitor unsafe temperatures, so you should never leave the roaster alone.
