UR20 support? about universal_robots_externalcontrol_urcap HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi, thank you for reporting this. I don't think that this has anything to do with the UR20. I'll have to look into this a bit more...

from universal_robots_externalcontrol_urcap.

More simply, I try running the example server on my remote PC and it locks up the pendant (cannot stop the running program) and it does not show a popup. I am using WSL; however, i can use tcpdump on WSL and see that communication is being sent (Windows OS opens a port to forward the data)

python3 ./simple_external_control_server.py hello_world.script --port 50002
The Simple External Control server is running on port 50002
Connected: ('172.23.0.1', 52134) on Thread-1

def test_func():
  textmsg("test function")
end

# NODE_CONTROL_LOOP_BEGINS

test_func()

# NODE_CONTROL_LOOP_ENDS

Closed: ('172.23.0.1', 52134) on Thread-1

I get similar behaviour when running directly in Windows as well.

C:\Python38\python.exe .\simple_external_control_server.py .\hello_world.script
The Simple External Control server is running on port 50002
Connected: ('127.0.0.1', 6131) on Thread-1

def test_func():
  textmsg("test function")
end

# NODE_CONTROL_LOOP_BEGINS

test_func()

# NODE_CONTROL_LOOP_ENDS

Note, I switched to a Linux box and I am able to get the connection working (can verify with tcpdump that it is working).

I was able to also get it working with WSL with help from this post I think the main issue I had was the driver's reverse_ip was not set properly (as it autodetects the WSL address when it must be the Windows IP.)

You can close this Issue as it's working for my use case now.

Thank you for coming back on this.
