32 | Copy the generated *.fw file for your device (e.g. fx2lafw-saleae-logic.fw) |
| 33 | into the $prefix/share/sigrok-firmware directory (create it, if needed). | |
| 34 | ||
| 35 | Replace $prefix with the install prefix of sigrok, e.g. /usr or /usr/local. | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | Example (assuming /usr/local as $prefix): | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | $ sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware | |
| d5f5ea73 | 40 | |
| 8b13135e UH |
41 | $ sudo cp hw/saleae-logic/build/fx2lafw-saleae-logic.fw \ |
| 42 | /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware | |

44 | The sigrok frontends (command-line or GUI) will automatically search for |
| 45 | firmware files there and automatically use/upload them. | |
