====== Xprotolab Plain ======

{{:en:acc:xscope:pins.jpg?300|}}

The Xprotolab Plain is a multi scope board created by [[http://www.gabotronics.com/|Gabotronics]]. It is the most inexpensive but feature rich oscilloscope in the market. It consists of a simple DIP module with a USB interface. Visualization of the signals and controlling the oscilloscope is done on the PC interface software (open source). The Xprotolab Plain is similar to the original Xprotolab, but doesn't have the display and buttons, so it only works with the USB interface. The board measures only 1 x 2 inches, and can be mounted directly on a breadboard. The Xprotolab can also be used as a development board for the AVR XMEGA microcontroller.

Package include
  * Xprotolab Plain (Connectors were soldered)
  * 10 x IC hook
  * Micro USB Cable

====== How to use ======
===== Xscopes Qt program =====

{{:en:acc:xscope:pcinterface.png?500|}}

==== Build & Run ====
1. Install Qt packages
  sudo apt-get update
=== XU4 ===
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install qt5-default libqt5serialport5-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev
  sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgles2-mesa
=== C2 ===
You must remove mali-fbdev package before installing qt5. \\
Also need to update the system software with [[http://odroid.com/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=en:c2_ubuntu_release_note_v1.2#how_to_update_the_kernel_and_system|dist-upgrade]] first.
<code>
sudo apt-get remove mali-x11
sudo apt-get install qt5-default libqt5serialport5-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev
sudo apt download mali-x11
sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite mali-x11*.deb
sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-mali
</code>
=== C1 ===
  sudo apt-get update
  sudo apt-get install qt5-default libqt5serialport5-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev
  
You should add swap space due to its limited RAM.
  sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
  sudo mkswap /swapfile
  sudo swapon /swapfile
After build, if you want to free
  sudo swapoff -a

==== ====

2. Get soure code
  git clone https://github.com/ganzziani/xscopes-qt

3. Build
  cd xscopes-qt
  qmake
  make -j5

4. Run
  sudo ./xscope

5. Connect Xprotolab to your Board  using micro USB cable.

6. Then, click "Connect" button in the "Options" tab on UI.
