As a Linux (Mandriva 2007) user, i desire use PC_Lab2000 to view the data from k8047.
Has somebody used ‘wine’ (\www.winehq.com ) interface to view PC_Lab200 under Linux ? Or did you have another solution ?
Any help welcome ! (In French or English)
J’utilise Mandriva 2007.
Quelqu’un aurait utilise ’ wine’ ( \www.winehq.com ) pour afficher PC_LAB
2000 sous linux ? Ou, avez-vous une autre solution ?
Merci d’avance !

It seems that nobody has made the K8047 application for Linux.
So, you may have to write your own application program using the DLL for the K8047.
The instructions how to use the DLL and example programs for Windows you find at this link:
velleman.be/downloads/files/ … 10_dll.zip
The only Linux application I found is for the USB Experiment Interface Board K8055.
You may use it as a reference how to use the DLL in Linux: linuxk8055.free.fr/
Thanks for the links, VEL255 !
With the new version pclab2000se, the display is correct when called with ‘wine’, altought the data is not acquired from the boad. 
The usb device is detected by the OS as HID device (kernel 2.6), so it seems that some links are missing between the device and the software…
I do not know where to find !
Any ideas, VEL2255, readers ?
Have you tried to use the K8047D.DLL + K8047E.EXE with the demo software under Linux?
No, because… where to find these 2 files ?
Those files are in this package on the downloads site: k8047_pcs10_dll.zip
K8047/PCS10 DLL and example to write your own software.
I add the two files to the ‘fake’ windows folder and to the same location than PClab, but no change… It seems that the USB support via wine is not totally up to speed …The application start but does not ‘see’ the usb
Last news:
Under Mandriva Free Spring 2007.1 , using VirtualBox 1.4.0 showing a virtual XP box, the PC_Lab2000 is working and perfectly happy.
Screenshots and infos on request if needed.
Good to see that you got it working! 
Yes, but in fact the VirtualBox approach is not native linux solution, but ok… will try again to use WINE to emulate the stuff !
About VirtualBox, it is a nice free piece of software…
Dear all,
TclVI is now supporting the PCS10/K8047 device. The code is still beta and the PCS500 and PCG10 supporting routines, previously in assembly, were completely rewritten in C with some online assembly, which considerably eases the porting to amd64 and the building of shared libraries. However I still had no time to test the PCS500 and PCG10 for this new version, so don’t even expect it to work at all. I had plans to release the code as soon as I would find some time for testing, but since people are willing to use the PCS10/K8047 device under linux I decided to make the code avalable for the brave to try it.
Use it at your own risk.
