Installation Instructions
AlazarTech packages can be installed using the standard tools of Linux
distributions, e.g. yum/dnf on CentOS, and apt/aptitude on Debian/Ubuntu. For
more information, refer to the documentation of your Linux distribution.
The ATS-SDK product contains an extra software package, called
ats-devel,
for
your Linux distribution containing the following components:
1.
A programmer’s guide for the boards
2.
Header files for C/C++ programming, and library wrappers for other
programming languages
3.
Code samples that demonstrate typical acquisition configurations
Note
: The
ats-devel
package is not architecture specific.
On development machines, AlazarTech recommends installing all the packages
provided with the boards. On the other hand, in a production environment, the
ats-devel
and
alazar-front-panel
packages are optional. It is enough to install
the
libats
package in addition to user-developed applications and the drivers
corresponding to the boards used to get a working system.
To install packages for ATS9353 on your Linux system, follow these steps:
1.
Once you have connected one or several ATS9353 in your computer,
power it on.
2.
Install the corresponding software packages for your ATS9353.
3.
If you purchased the optional ATS-GPU library, you should have
received an email with serial number, link to download, and password
to install. Download and install ATS-GPU. Contact
if you have not received the appropriate
software package.
Note
: If you have previously installed different AlazarTech products in your computer,
only the driver package will be new. Be sure to use the latest version of all packages
though, as older libraries, for example, may not be compatible with all the features of
recent drivers.
