====== Measurement Computing USB-TEMP-AI ======

===== Initial Testing =====

//2016/07/28 13:50//

  * Booted the CERN SL Kernel 2.6.33.9-rt31.79.el6rt.x86_64 dev system
  * Plugged the USB device into the CPU directly
  * Kernel recognized the device as:  <code>
usb 2-1.7: new full speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 3
usb 2-1.7: New USB device found, idVendor=09db, idProduct=00bc
usb 2-1.7: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
usb 2-1.7: Product: USB-TEMP-AI
usb 2-1.7: Manufacturer: MCC
usb 2-1.7: SerialNumber: 00107479
generic-usb 0003:09DB:00BC.0003: hiddev96,hidraw2: USB HID v1.01 Device [MCC USB-TEMP-AI] on usb-0000:00:1d.0-1.7/input0
</code>

For generic programming, we are going to want to use the UL library.

Looking in this FTP site for code:  [[ftp://lx10.tx.ncsu.edu/pub/Linux/drivers/USB/]]

Requires **libusb**, found an online page suggesting check this:  <code>
rpm -qa | grep -i libusb
libusb1-1.0.9-0.6.rc1.el6.x86_64
libusb-0.1.12-23.el6.x86_64
</code>

==== Prerequisites ====

  - Installed these packages <code>
sudo yum install libusb-devel libudev-devel libusb1 libusb1-devel 
</code>
  - Grabbed this <code>
mkdir ~/code
cd ~/code
git clone git://github.com/signal11/hidapi.git
</code>
  - Compile and install <code>
cd ~/code/hidapi/
./bootstrap
./configure
make
sudo make install
</code>
  - Install the **udev** rules for the system
    - **Now located in the MCCLinuxDrivers directory**
      - <del>Download the rules from their site <code>
cd /tmp
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wjasper/Linux_Drivers/master/60-mcc.rules
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wjasper/Linux_Drivers/master/61-mcc.rules
</code></del>
    - Copy the files into the **udev** configuration <code>
sudo cp ~/src/MCCLinuxDrivers/6*-mcc.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/
sudo chmod 644 /etc/udev/rules.d/6*-mcc.rules
sudo chown root:root /etc/udev/rules.d/6*-mcc.rules
</code>
    - Restart **udev** <code>
sudo /sbin/udevadm control --reload
sudo /sbin/udevadm control --reload-rules
</code>

==== Measurement Computing Library ====

  - <del>Download code <code>
cd ~/code
git clone https://github.com/wjasper/Linux_Drivers.git
</code></del>
  - Build and install <code>
cd ~/src/MCCLinuxDrivers/USB/mcc-libusb
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig
</code>
  - Had to add **/usr/local/lib** to an **ldconfig** script
    - Modify **/etc/ld.so.conf.d/lvisf.conf** <code>
sudo nano /etc/ld.so.conf.d/lvisf.conf
</code>
    - Append this line to the file if it isn't already there into **/etc/ld.so.conf.d/lvisf.conf** <code>
/usr/local/lib
</code>
    - It looks like this for me now  --- //[[david.rabine@nasa.gov|David Lloyd Rabine]] 2016/07/28 15:07// <code>
/home/lvis/src/spectrum/shared/linux/pc64/lib
/home/lvis/src/MIC3753/linux_driver_source_3.2.7.0_64bit/libs
/opt/lvisf/src/lvisF/build/lib/msgService
/opt/lvisf/src/lvisF/build/lib/shmem
/usr/local/lib
</code>
  - Now run **ldconfig** to get the library to be in our path <code>
sudo ldconfig
</code>

==== Functionality Test ====

  - To where the code is installed at the moment <code>
cd /home/lvis/src/MCCLinuxDrivers/USB/mcc-libusb
</code>
  - Run the test program <code>
./test-usb-temp-ai
</code>
  - Appears to work! 8-) <code>
[lvis@lvisf-centos65 mcc-libusb]$ ./test-usb-temp-ai
USB TEMP-AI is found.
