content: This is the recipe I used to get open6022BE working. It may be of interest as there are a few differences from the Hantek OPEN6022BE User Manual 1.0b19-1.pdf.I have the Hantek 6022BL unit.I can only get the following to work if the push button is in the 'out' position.My setup is Win7 Pro SP1.Installed on a VM on qemu/kvm running on a Centos 7 box.The USB from the Hantek scope is connected to another box running Win8.1. On this box is running USB-Redirector as a server.The Win7 VM has USB-Redirector client, so the USB is 'directed' to the VM from the Win8.1 box.(an aside: highly recommend USB-Redirector; it costs about $37 per USB connection but it is very good SW, and it opens the door to many advantages in a private cloud network).In addition I am tigervnc remoted in to the Win7 VM from a rdesktop session on another old PC running Centos 6.6. - effectively just a monitor with a longer 'cable'.I originally had the stock Hantek 6022BL running OK on the VM. The SW worked fine on the scope and the LA did launch but there were no traces, but that could still be that I had poor input signals to test, or that nutty button was in the wrong state.I could not get open6022BE working so I backed out the whole thing, including deleting the drivers from Windows directory.I reinstalled the stock SW, 1.04 from a current Hantek site download. This time I installed the 6022BE version. Then I installed the drivers, from the same Hantek download. For Win7, Driver1 does not show up in Device Manager, even with 'hidden' enabled. Driver2 does show up though. (I did do an XP install a few days ago on a different VM, and Driver1 does show up in Device Manager).I extracted the Release folder from Open6022be_src_codegear_radstudio_cpp.zip download, and put it on the desktop. I did this because when I tried this yesterday in Program Files, it complained about not be able to write an .ini file so I wanted to avoid any Program Files permission issues.Then I copied HT6022BL_Software/SDK/SDK_6022BL/VB/HTMarch.dll to the Release folder on my Desktop. This dll comes from inside HT6022BL_Software.zip.Double clicking on Hantek_6022BE.exe launched the open6022BE app succesfully.I have not done any real scope work but it does look OK. Perhaps I will find the remote vnc connection a limitation, we'll see.If my Hantek box works as a scope with the pushbutton 'out' then that must mean that it becomes a LA when the button is 'in'. I am loathe to break my current setup, as it was so hard to get working (left out days of messing around above). Perhaps the thing to do is to try the Hantek box with the button 'in' on a completely different VM, and try to get it working as a LA.Separately, I got 'openHantek' (linux) working on a Ubuntu VM. I saw a note in this forum that a driver exists,https://github.com/rpm2003rpm. This is the first I can find re drivers for a 6022 in linux as all the driver info around is for older Hantek boxes. I would sure like to hear a bit more on this. Install experience etc. I will reply to woodbird on this.
