****************************************************************************
* PicoScope USB TC08 Linux Driver *
* Pico Technology *
****************************************************************************
1. What files are included in this documentation?
- INSTALL: explains how to install the driver on your Linux system.
- src/linux/95-pico.rules: an example showing how to set access permission for
USB devices on Linux systems using udev.
- src/linux/usbtest: a script to help you check whether the current user of
the system has permission to access the USB devices.
- examples/tc08test_cpp and examples/tc08test_c: example programs
demonstrating the use of the driver from C++ and C programs.
- libusbtc08-<version>.pdf: Documentation on the USBTC08 API.
2. How do I install this driver?
Please refer to the file INSTALL included in this documentation.
3. How do I use the example programs?
- Firstly install the driver as described in INSTALL.
- Then change to the relevant directory and compile the example program:
make
- Plug-in the unit.
- Start the program:
./tc08test_cpp or ./tc08test_c
4. What is usbtest for and how do I use it?
If you are unable to access your USB TC08, a possible cause is that
the relevant permissions are not set correctly on your Linux system.
usbtest is a shell script which helps you diagnose such problems.
- Type "./usbtest" in the shell to run it.
- Follow the on-screen instructions, including plugging in your
USB TC08 when requested.
- The program will report whether the current user has permission
to access usb devices. If they do not, some help has been included
in INSTALL. Alternatively, please consult your Linux documentation
or, if you do not administer the system yourself, please contact
your system administrator.
