I'm trying to use Arbotix-m robot controller. Just got all this awesome new hardware. It says it only works with version 1.0.6. I had version 1.8 installed.
I removed version 1.8 and reinstalled 1.0.6 but it didn't work. I tried but the unzip version and the installer with the same result. When I try to run Arduino the logo pops up then disappears. When I run arduino_debug.exe I see this.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException

There are no JAVA* environment variables set. I DO have Java installed at E:\Java\jre1.8.0_271
I would l really like to get these servos working, so any help would be appreciated.
