Move the include flags for files in the source tree from
configure.ac to Makefile.am where they belong. Also use
AM_CPPFLAGS instead of CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS to make sure the
files in the build/source tree are always picked up first.
Also, remove the include/libsigrok sub-directory from the
search path, thereby making the <libsigrok/> prefix mandatory
when building libsigrok itself. This matches the convention
already imposed on users of the library.
Add a driver for the DER EE DE-5000 LCR meter. This meter is based on
the Cyrustek ES51919/ES51920 chipset and communicates with the host
computer via an optional connectivity kit.
The kit uses an optoisolated unidirectional link to connect to the
meter and an USB cable on the host side. Internally the connection is
using the FTDI FT232R USB UART chip i.e. from the host computer point
of view the meter is connected into an RS-232 serial port.
This driver implements just a thin shim layer for registering the
driver and uses the es51919 module for all the actual work.
The Brymen BM25x series supports the BC-20X that is an opto-isolated
serial cable. The link seems to be unidirectional i.e. when activated
the DMM periodically sends updates to the host while the host cannot
control the DMM in any way.
The protocol is documented in "6000-count-digital-multimeters-r1.pdf"
that is available from the manufacturer. Every 15 byte packet consists
of a bitmap where the bits correspond to segments or symbols on the
LCD display i.e. the DMM essentially sends the contents of its screen
to the host in every update. This driver then decodes the measured
quantity, unit and its value from the bitmap.
