Hello, 

First some information regarding your first question: How to get started with SDK?

The SDK itself and a documentation on the SDK can be found on GitHub. 

As an App Build Environment you nee a Ubuntu 20.04 Linux operating system with a special set of software packages and certain settings. There are several alternatives for such an environment. I would recommend to use the App Build Environment which is integrated in ctrlX WORKS (since V 1.14). See this documentation on how to setup this development environment. After the fist boot you can run some install scripts which are part of the virtual environment to download an unzip the SDK or to download some additional packages for a specific programming language (see screenshot). After that you can connect from Visual Studio Code (locally installed on window host) to your to your App Build Environment with ssh and the use of the "Remot SSH" extension and the connection string (eg: ssh -p 10022 boschrexroth@127.0.0.1).

Then I would recommend you to take a look at the existing samples in the SDK for the programming language you want to use. Some information about the python samples can be found here

Then you can follow the How to blog you mentioned. 

Best regards, 

Nick

Which System version are you using? Please go to Settings->Apps and click on "Show system apps".  Here you can check the versions of your system apps and therefor the version of your System. 

The sample sdk-py-mouse-data only works with the version 1.12 (RM21.11) out of the box.
