  Hi Nathan! You can find the most updated documentation for the python api for MachineMotion v1 here.

  thanks for the response!

  Let me fill in some more details.

  I'm using a "MachineMotion 1 Controller" I could not use the "python-api V4.2", however, i could use the v2.2. (it is possible i was using something wrong ). I looked at the compatibility and saw that "API V2 requires machinemotion V1.12" https://github.com/VentionCo/mm-python-api/tree/release/v2.2#:~:text=a%20Python%20program-,Compatibility,-The%20Python%20API

  I am unable to find the version on my machinemotion controller. (when i go to 192.168.7.2 in a browser, what comes up is only 3 options; application launcher, machine logic, manual control. I do not see a V number in the lower right hand corner)

  probably worth checking first what version i actually have and if it is possible to upgrade or stay with API V2.2.

  thanks for the help

  Hi Nathan, someone from our integration team will reach out to you regarding this since the answer/solution will depend on the MachineMotion version. They will be able to assess if what you are trying to do is possible with the v1 controller.
