QtDMM2
Digital Multimeter readout software with recorder (GUI is still not ready)

Description

It has been very quiet around QtDMM2 and CDMM for quite some time. I had absolutely no feedback for it for years and I didn't need it myself. This dindn't exactly motivate me to work on it. For some reason I became quite a lot of feedback for QtDMM, QtDMM2 and CDMM lately (Maybe it was mentioned on some website). This gave me the justification to finish it.

CDMM is quite advanced already. It is fully functional under Linux and serial connections already work under Windows. OSX should be ok, but is not tested yet. The GUI QtDMM2 evolved a lot and is not far from beeing ready for the public. Local devices work great under Linux and Windows. OSX, for some reason is a problem and crashes a lot (This is starting to annoy me. It is supposed to be a Unix and the Qt library should hide the details. I'm not sure if I'm going to put more work in this niche OS).

QtDMM2 is a DMM readout software including a configurable recorder. QtDMM2 will be a GUI for multimteter based on Qt-4.x. The impementation is in an early larval stage. The most important difference between QtDMM and QtDMM2 will be the separation of front- and backend (cdmm) and the ability to handle more than one multimeter at once (even over network).

The first step is the implementation of the console application cdmm which will handle the devices. cdmm is lightweight and should compile on emebedded devices without problems. The library dependencies are minimal.

Sourcecode documentation can be found here


Prerequisites

cdmm has been tested on Linux so far, but it should be compileable on other flavours of UNIX provided the following prerequisites are met:
  • gcc

Installation

QtDMM comes in a source-only distribution. Compilation is simple (Needs Qt4 for Makefile creation)
  1. Untar the tarball
  2. Enter the directory cdmm
  3. call qmake
  4. call make and wait a few moments

Now you'll find the executable cdmm in the bin directory. Put it into your $PATH and you are done.
