I have tried to get urx working with the new e-series and have been able to read packets and robot joints, but am unable to send move commands. Has anyone gotten this working with the new e-series?

Update: I did get move commands working - get TCPForce command does not work with new robot arm however.

Hi @geg58, did you solve the issues and were you sucessful to control the e-series with python-urx? We are thinking to buy a UR5-e-series, but would be bad if urx is not working. Best regards

Hi @mat-l ,
Did you buy the UR5-e series ? Because I have it at work and I'm new to UR things so if you have one, I'd be thankful if you could talk about a few things on the robot and its connection to a socket etc ... Best Regards !

Dear @MaeliseCastel, I couldn't by it yet. I just worked with the virtual URsim environments for some tests. Also, if I am not wrong, python-urx is no longer supported in the future. Better use the officially supported UR-ros-based driver: https://github.com/UniversalRobots/Universal_Robots_ROS_Driver Best regards
