Hi,

I am running RoboDK on my host machine (Windows 10) and trying to run a python script inside a Linux VM. I tried the following code:

Code:

RDK = robolink.Robolink(robodk_ip="172.27.128.1")
item = RDK.Item('base')

When I run this, I get the following error:

Code:

item = RDK.Item('base')
File "/home/rshanor/venvs/lib/python3.10/site-packages/robodk/robolink.py", line 1394, in Item
self._send_line(command)
File "/home/rshanor/venvs/lib/python3.10/site-packages/robodk/robolink.py", line 801, in _send_line
self.COM。发送(字节(字符串+'\n', 'utf-8')) # Python 3.x only
BrokenPipeError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

I do not think the issue is firewall related. Before opening the correct ports, the above code gives a different TimeoutError. Thanks for the help!

Did you activate the option to enable the external API?

Could you try a different port? The default port is 20500 but there could be another process is using this port and the API started in a different port.

You'll find these settings here:

• Tools-Options
  
• Select Other tab
