After a seemingly successful installation, having followed the instructions at https://www.picotech.com/downloads/linux , I can get picoscope to load and run in demo mode, but it cannot detect our beloved ADC-20 when it's plugged into the laptop's usb.
The lsusb command brings up "Bus 006 Device 002: ID 0ce9:1003 pico Technology", so it's being seen as a device, but I've no idea how determine why it is not available to picoscope.
Please can anyone suggest faultfinding steps, I would be most grateful. The ADC-20 is usually a workhorse here, and I now need to bring it over to Linux to assist further developments.
Unfortunately, the ADC-20 is not compatible with the PicoScope 6 software.
The only data loggers which will work with the PicoScope 6 software are the USB DrDAQ and PicoLog 1000 Series devices.
There is a request to the Development Team to provide Linux drivers for the ADC-20 and ADC-24 in order to allow users to implement their own programs so I will escalate this.
Thanks for answering. Please let me know if there's any way I can help to support you with the required developments. It's important to my employer that we can use our instruments on different operating systems.
I just found that thread:
I'm looking for a driver for the ADC-24 on raspbian system. I would be interested in developing some software accessing the ADC-24 from RaspberryPi.
Has there been any progress with getting an ADC-20 to operate under Linux yet please?
Thanks,
Matt.
