TC-08 Ubuntu 20.04 Issues setting up - Solved - Missing driver in device.py
TC-08 Ubuntu 20.04 Issues setting up - Solved - Missing driver in device.py
I'm trying to setup TC-08 on my linux device for continuous logging purposes.
While I can connect it to PicoLog application I cannot get it to work in Python. I found couple of Issues and I'm all out of ideas for troubleshooting.
While setting up Python wrappers from (https://github.com/picotech/picosdk-python-wrappers) I get following errors when trying to do line. This doesn't work, unless I do I change it to .
The next error I get is while running which returns error:
The folder /opt/picoscope/include has no directory there named usbtc08 or anything like at all.
Is it safe to assume that Drivers are not installed correctly?
Is there a step-by-step installation process for setting everything up in one place? I couldn't find it. How would I go about resolving this issues?
P.S I'm fairly new to linux and Pico instruments, please treat me like I don't know what I'm doing.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Hi! I am also running into problems with my Pico TC-08 on my Ubuntu 20.04 machine. Could you elaborate how you fixed yours?
Also, I assume you are using a python interface similar to this https://github.com/bankrasrg/usbtc08, are you? If not, could you kindy guide me to the one you are using?
