Manager / Hand

Capability

Discover devices, open connections, and manage shared buses and individual Hand lifecycles.

Applicable Products

All recognized products expose device information and JointLayout. Check domain capabilities after connecting.

Quick Example

For installation and connection prerequisites, see Quickstart.

import asyncio
from bc_revo3_sdk import main_mod as sdk

async def main():
    manager = sdk.Manager()
    try:
        hand = await manager.connect_auto()
        try:
            print(hand.device_info.product_code)
            print(hand.joint_layout)
        finally:
            await hand.close()
    finally:
        await manager.close()

asyncio.run(main())

#include <iostream>
#include <revo3/revo3.hpp>

int main() {
    revo3::Manager manager;
    auto hand = manager.connect_auto();
    std::cout << hand.device_info().product_code << "\n";
    hand.close();
}

Parameters and Returns

Operation	Parameters	Returns
Manager.connect_auto()	—	Hand
Hand.close()	—	No value; release the connection handle

Errors and Limits

Closing one Hand does not close other devices on the same port. Release Hand and Manager in Python finally blocks; C++ manages resources with RAII.
