 |
|
Hello
I'm trying to communicate with a ADC212/100 using the drivers in the ad200.tar archive. The driver can't find a compatible unit, but apparently it sees the 212. The status code is 2 (unknown hw), I think. If I turn off the power to the 212 I get status 7 (no hw found).
Isn't the 212 supported by the linux driver? |

Hi,
Have you tried to see if the unit works with our software on a windows machine?
Kind regards |

| Yes, it works fine with the windows picoscope. (On the same machine, that is) |

Hi,
I have looked into this but we can no longer support this driver for this products. Sorry to the bearer of the bad news.
Kind regards |

Ok, that is bad news for us. We will have to try using labview then.
Is there any chance that you will release the source for the current driver? |

This is really a problem if the ADC212 is not supported by the Linux driver, since
the web page indicated that the Linux driver supports the ADC212 (in my case,
the ADC212/50). When I attempt to communicate through the parallel port, I only
get a "0" returned from adc200_open_device(), with no diagnostic messages
coming from a200lnx to suggest what the problem might be.
If I can't operate the ADC212 under Linux, then I'm going to have to return it
for a refund. It seems a shame, considering that it is the cheapest device for
the performance it delivers. Instead, I'm going to end up a week late on the
delivery of this test equipment. That does not make me happy. |
