In Linux, the USB driver installation script is found in the same directory as the
acx_stapl_player itself.
To install the Bitporter USB driver in Linux (after the prerequisite 32‐bit shared libraries are
present, as mentioned in the above note):
1.
Change to the directory containing the acx_stapl_player
% cd ace_install_dir/system/cmd
2.
With administrator privileges
*
, run the Perl install script
install_acx_bitporter_usb.pl
% sudo perl ./install_acx_bitporter_usb.pl
3.
After the installation completes successfully, the script ends with the following
message:
Bitporter USB driver, version x.y.z, installed.
Note:
Linux USB Bitporter connections are currently only supported on CentOS 5 and 6 or RHEL 5
and 6. Other Linux releases are not supported by Achronix, but may work if they include udev.
