29Usage
30-----
31
32Copy the generated *.fw file for your device (e.g. fx2lafw-saleae-logic.fw)
33into the $prefix/share/sigrok-firmware directory (create it, if needed).
34
35Replace $prefix with the install prefix of sigrok, e.g. /usr or /usr/local.
36
37Example (assuming /usr/local as $prefix):
38
39 $ sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware
40
41 $ sudo cp hw/saleae-logic/build/fx2lafw-saleae-logic.fw \
42 /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware
43
44The sigrok frontends (command-line or GUI) will automatically search for
45firmware files there and automatically use/upload them.
