Running Analyzer App on a Raspberry Pi #5

The Analyzer App ('the app'). This is a Python program that runs on a Windows, MaC OSX, or Linux PC, and displays the stepper information in real time in a graphical view.

After some research it looks like PyQT is used for the analyzer app so it should be able to run on a Raspberry Pi?

I have a Raspberry Pi 3b+ with a HyperPixel display running KlipperScreen, would be great to use the app on that device (besides KlipperScreen) and use the touchscreen etc.

Has the app ever been tested on a Raspberry Pi and/or compiled for ARM?

Hi Thijs,

I tested the app on Ubuntu with a X86 processor but never a Raspberry. Would be interesting to give it a try if you can.

The BLE communication is done using Bleak Python library https://github.com/hbldh/bleak which may use native drivers so I would check first if it supports The Raspberry Pie.

Please keep us updated.

Was the app ever tested on a Raspberry Pi?
