Quick Installation

• Download and install the anaconda python distribution. Anaconda is a batteries-included Python 2.7 distribution. We will use the Anaconda-included numpy, PyQt and SciPy, and probably other packages in the future.

• Install PyQTGraph by running "pip install pyqtgraph" in your terminal.

• Install the Beep package. In some distributions(like Ubuntu) the pcspkr module is in blacklist.conf. In these cases run: sudo modprobe pcspkr

Linux

Create the file '73-opalkelly.rules' in /etc/udev/rules.d/ (as root user) with the following content

# udev rules file for all Opal Kelly VID matches.
# This file allows udev to change the mode to 666 (all read/write)
# for any Opal Kelly VID.
#

# For FedoraCore 5 and similar:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device", SYSFS{idVendor}=="151f", MODE="0666"

# For FedoraCore 7 and similar:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="151f", MODE="0666"

restart service udev (as root user)

service udev restart
