OpenHantek GUI

OpenHantek GUI Qwt

Switched from HantekDSO to OpenHantek for the Voltcraft model 2090 DSO.

The OpenHantek GUI adds a bit more flexibility, e.g. export to PDF, PS, JPG or CSV data.

The current (0.2.0 alpha) openHantek version on OS X 10.6.8 was compiled as follows. Dependencies have been installed with MacPorts.

# opengl is part of OS X 10.6.8
# OS X <a href="https://github.com/nall/nexys2-osx">fxload</a>
# <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/openhantek/files/dsoextractfw/">dsoextractfw</a>
$ sudo port install libusb # USB library
$ sudo port install qt4-mac # Qt4 Aqua (qt4-x11 as alternative)
$ sudo port install fftw # discrete Fourier C library
$ cd /opt/local/openhantek
$ qmake PREFIX=/opt/local/openhantek

This shell-script can be used to load the DSO firmware prior to starting the program. Applescript could be used for this as well.
