When you order a product with LinX-Base (UX-Designer, Fieldbus Access and Data Engine) the required runtime will be pre-installed. If you still need to download this runtime package manually, follow the steps below.

This article is valid for all the CCpilot iMX8 based displays: V510, V700, V705, V710, V1000 and V1200

Download the LinX-Base runtime for your CCpilot display

In the Virtual Machine (UX-Designer or your own development), open the Firefox web browser and navigate to the CrossControl support site: https://crosscontrol.com/

Under “DISPLAY & COMPUTER” navigate to the choosen CCpilot display.

On the product page click on "DOWNLOAD AREA" or scroll down, click on:

DOWNLOADS --> DEVICE DOWNLOADS --> LINX-BASE DEVICE RUNTIME

Then choose the corresponding CC Linux OS version installed on your display:

You will fine a file in this name format:

linx-base-qt[version]-ccl[version]_[version]_[target].run

As an example, this is a linx-base file for a V700 display:

linx-base-qt65-ccl33_4.2.0_v700.run

For Qt6.5, CC Linux 3.3 and Linx-Base 4.2.0 version

You can see the download progress in the top right corner of the window. Wait for the download to complete. By default, the files get downloaded to the folder “Downloads” in your home folder.

Transfer the runtime installation file to the CCpilot display

In the virtual machine, open a terminal window, change to the Download folder by entering:

$ cd Downloads

Make sure that you know the IP address of your CCpilot display (/opt/bin/snb_reader)

Enter the following command in the terminal window, replacing:

linx-base-qt[version]-ccl[version]_[version]_[target].run with the proper filename of the file you just downloaded and #.#.#.# with the IP address of the CCpilot target:

$ scp linx-base-qt[version]-ccl[version]_[version]_[target].run ccs@#.#.#.#:/opt

Write “yes” if you get asked “Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?” When asked for the password, enter the ccs-password “default”.

Install the runtime on the CCpilot display

While still in the terminal window, enter:

$ ssh ccs@#.#.#.#

where #.#.#.# is the IP address of your CCpilot target.

When logged in with the password “default”, enter the following commands:

To navigate into the /opt directory:

$ cd /opt

To make the file executable:

$ sudo chmod +x linx-base-qt[version]-ccl[version]_[version]_[target].run

And to install the file:

$ sudo ./linx-base-qt[version]-ccl[version]_[version]_[target].run

Don’t forget to replace “linx-base-qt[version]-ccl[version]_[version]_[target].run” with the correct filename of the installation file.

The runtime installation takes around one minute and will finish by listing the installed packages.
