    Status: Open => Answered

Karl proposed the following answer:
In Sikuli 1.0.1 Ihad OCR searching activated when I used a find with text input, but I get the same error you have  when I do it now. 
I tried using Settings.OcrTextSearch = True, and Settings.OcrTextRead = True and made sure "allow OCR" is activated in "more options...".

If you just want the text and not the location, you can use channels.text().
You can also compare this to the channel number you want, you can use channels.text() == "CH1".
