## Firmware
|
|
|
|
We have two types of firmware, LiteX and XDMA. We are in the process of updating the LiteX firmware to work on the latest hardware, and we will use it moving forward. Until then, use the XDMA firmware if you are not working on LiteX.

|
|
|
|
Follow the instructions in the Software/xdma_driver_linux or Software/xdma_driver_win_src_2018_2 folders to install the XDMA linux or windows driver before proceeding with installing the rest of the software.
|
|
|
|
For LiteX developers, the Linux driver is stable. [Windows](https://github.com/NateMeyer/litepcie_driver_win) and [Mac](https://github.com/tech2077/litepcie-macos-driver) drivers are in development.

## Software
|
|
|
|
Our primary software is [TS.NET](https://github.com/macaba/TS.NET), which takes in data from the hardware, triggers on it, and sends the triggered data over to [ngscopeclient](https://www.ngscopeclient.org/)
|
|
|
|
Dependences for build scripts on Linux: `apt-get install -y dotnet6; apt-get install -y libgdiplus`
|
|
|
|
On Windows, should just need Visual Studio with the C# plugins
|
|
|
|
To install ngscopeclient, follow the instructions in their [user manual](https://www.ngscopeclient.org/downloads/ngscopeclient-manual.pdf)
