Just ordered a ufactory lite 6 arm. Is there any option to program this and run it without the need for a laptop. Does it have any internal memory that can be loaded with a set of commands? 

Just looking at options on how to control it.

Yes, you should be able to run programs without the need of a laptop. The uFactory uArm I believe the uFactory controller is based on Raspberry Pi (or at least a Linux-based device you can connect to). So in short, the uFactory 6 lite arm has the same controller as the xArm, which is like a tiny computer you can connect to send programs and execute them.

For example, when you generate a program in RoboDK for the uFactory xArm (you should use the xArm post processor for the uFactory 6 lite arm), you'll obtain a Python script you can run to execute the program. You should be able to transfer this Python script to the robot controller and execute it remotely. Just make sure to install the RoboDK Python package:

Hi,

I am trying to connect to xArm6 but I get an error:



However the Ping works fine:



The error seems to come from the xArmDriver.py file located in C:\RoboDK\api\Robot

Any advice is appreciated

I recommend you to update RoboDK to the latest version and use the default Python interpreter. You can check the default Python interpreter here:

1. Select Tools-Options
   
2. Select the Python tab
