Q4. RPC connection failed，SDK log error "Connect to <IP_ADDRESS>:<PORT> FAILED".

Issue Screenshot：

Solution：

1. The <IP_ADDRESS>:<PORT> shown in the console SDK logs indcates the target robot's IP address and RPC port number. Please note that the RPC port number is fixed at 30004.
2. Check if the robot IP address and RPC port number in the code are correct.
3. Check the network connection between the local computer and target robot. You can use the ping command to test. For detailed instructions, refer to SDK PC to Robot Communication Setup.

Q5. The try/catch block caught an AuboException with the message "RPC request timeout".

Issue Screenshot：

Solution：

1. Ensure that you have called setRequestTimeout to set the request timeout before invoking the RPC client's connect interface. If not, please add setRequestTimeout(1000).

2. If setRequestTimeout is already called, try to increase the time. For example, change the input to 3000 to improve the request success rate.

Cause of Issue： The cryptbase.dll file in the lib folder of the SDK package is not compatible with the cryptbase.dll file that comes with the Windows 7 system.

Solution：

• Solution 1: Only import aubo_sdkd.dll, aubo_sdk.dll, aubo_sdkd.lib and aubo_sdk.lib from the lib folder.
• Solution 2：Delete cryptbase.dll from the lib folder.
• Solution 3：Replace the cryptbase.dll file in the lib folder with the local computer's C:\Windows\System32\cryptbase.dll.
