Hi,
I have just bought one of the PCSU1000 two channel oscilloscopes but it will not work with either my PC or laptop.
Both are using 64-BIT processors, to be honest I didn’t even know they were it just works with anything else I install, and the message on install says to contact the vendor and request the 64 bit installation for Windows XP.
I cannot find the XP 64 bit installation on the CD or the support website please advise.

Not VISTA, so no signed driver problem.
I am using Windows XP but 64 bit version.
Can you not just compile to 64 bit OS?
Please give me the source and I’ll do it and return the 64 bit binary to you. To be honest didn’t realise my hobby shack PC was 64 bit, thought it was 32 bit.

The driver for 64 bit XP seems to be available.
The driver version is 2.04.06 dated 20th March 2008.
ftdichip.com/Drivers/CDM/CDM … tified.zip
This is the link to the Web site:
ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm
Maybe you can slightly modify the .inf file (PID and VID and the strings section) according to the ftd2xx.inf file of the original driver.
I tried it with no success… yet.

The oscilloscope program will not install on XP 64 bit.

You can install the software to 32 bit PC first. Then just copy the folder PC-Lab2000SE (C:\Program Files\Velleman…) to your 64 bit PC. Copy all the DLL and SYS files from that folder to the SYSTEM32 folder too.
Then download the driver version 2.04.06 from:
ftdichip.com/Drivers/CDM/CDM … tified.zip
Extract it (keeping the folder structure).
Then edit the file ftdibus.inf by replacing it by the following text.
Then plug in the PCSU1000 and install this driver.

Thanks. The details are very thorough, I will attempt this later after I find a 32 bit PC to install to first.
I have to state this and I mean it in all humility and I really am very greatful for the assistance but you need to see this from my perspective the suggestion is a little hard to understand. If I had had a PC with a 32 bit CPU do you not think I would have used that and not even asked for the 64 bit software?
Could you prepare an installation for other 64 bit users as I am sure there must be others that would have 64 bit PC’s that will have a similar problem.

On the Velsoft CD there is a folder:
D:\PC-lab2000SE\In case of Set-up problems\PC-LAB2000SE
There you’ll find an image of the installed PC-Lab2000SE software.
Just copy it to your 64 bit PC and copy all the DLL and SYS files to Windows’ SYSTEM32 folder.
This way you get an older version of the PC-LAB2000SE but anyhow you can do some tests…
After the driver installation continue by running the Pc_Lab2000se.exe.
Electromanic- Thanks for your work on getting FSCU1000 scope to work under 64-bit OS. I got it to work great under WinXP x64 with your help. Think you could make a similar modified INF file for the FGCU1000 Function Generator under x64 OS? I have both instruments.
I think it would be great if your next PCLAB software release would include 64-bit drivers. Lots of us Tech-Heads out here are now running x64 OS or will be soon.
Thanks,
Mark- Texas
