Version Compatibility Check

SDK Version: The version of the Galbot SDK software package installed on your development PC or robot.

Robot GBS Version: The system firmware version running on the Galbot robot hardware. These two versions must be compatible to ensure proper operation.

Quick Start

Run the compatibility check tool to verify your SDK version matches the robot's GBS version:

galbot_sdk check-version (run from anywhere on the HPU)

Common parameters:

# Specify a non-default robot IP address
galbot_sdk check-version --robot-ip <robot_IP>

# View the full compatibility matrix
galbot_sdk check-version --list

# Verify manually offline
galbot_sdk check-version --sdk-version 1.8.0 --robot-version GBS_1.16.0

Compatibility matrix (see output/check_robot_compat.py):

SDK Version RangeCorresponding Robot GBS Version
1.5.0 ~ 1.5.99GBS_1.13.x
1.6.0 ~ 1.7.99GBS_1.15.x
1.8.0 ~ 1.8.99GBS_1.16.x
1.9.0 ~ 1.9.99GBS_1.17.x
1.10.0 ~ 1.10.99GBS_1.18.x

If the check reports a mismatch, prioritize upgrading the robot's system version to the range required by the SDK; only downgrade the SDK if you must keep the robot's current version.
