Inclinometer for the Accelerator

Download the Inclinometer program

Download the cygwin version of the Inclinometer program, 1.5 Megabytes. The desktop short cut runs the bat file RunIncline.bat which will start the cygwin X server, and then run the inclinometer program InclineCygwin.exe. This bat file assumes that you took all the default locations for installing the program and cygwin below. If not, you will have to edit the bat file. Run the install program that you download here, installInclineCygwin.exe.

The program uses the US Digital A2T-S-S-D absolute encoder. www.USDigital.com

Install cygwin on your Windows Computer

As our software is native X/Motif, an X server is needed. On the Micrsoft Windows system, you must install cygwin, which you can download from www.Cygwin.com

You can take the default download, but must in addition select components to get cygwin/X:

Under X11 (near the bottom) select the
xinit and xorg_server packages (the listing is in alphabetical order), libXm2 (run time), libGL1:X11 OpenGL libraries (utility runtime), and libGLU1:X11 OpenGL libraries (utility runtime).
Under lib, select libglut3 (run time).

Below is a picture of the window where you select the packages. Click the mouse on the little plus symbol inside the little box to open up each list. Then scroll through the list (each is in alphabetical order) and select the package to install. Select a package by clicking on the little circle with the arrows.

Then simply continue on. In one of the earlier screens you can choose to download to a file if you have to install on a computer not connected to the internet. For more information go to www.Cygwin.com and on the left select the User's Guide, then under: 2. Setting Up Cygwin, select Download Source.

See the Cygwin/X page and in particular the instructions for downloading Cygwin/X from the Cygwin/X User's Guide for complete documentation.
