Tibbo Announcing New Linux Development Environment

This April, Tibbo is excited to announce the release of the LTPP3(G2) Development Environment! This comprehensive package comes as a Docker container, meticulously crafted to include all the essential tools and libraries for seamless LTPP3(G2) application development. Just install the container on your system, and you’re ready to start with your project.

In addition, they have integrated the SSI object, as well as libraries for some of their most popular Tibbits, into the latest Out-of-the-Box Experience (OOBE) package.

The SSI object implements I2C and SPI protocols, which are required for controlling many of our Tibbits. The bundled libraries support Tibbit #28 (ambient light sensor),Tibbit #29 (ambient temperature sensor) and Tibbit #30 (humidity and temperature sensor), enabling seamless communications with these Tibbits from within your applications.

To kick-start your TPP3G2 development journey, follow the detailed instructions available on their GitHub page.

IO Ninja for Apple M1/M2 and Other ARM64 Platforms

IO Ninja Service Release 5.3.2 is out!

The highlight of this release is the support for the ARM64 (“Aarch64”) processor architecture in all IO Ninja components, including:

• The Device Monitor, used for software-level monitoring of serial ports
• The IO Ninja Hardware client, a command-line interface utility for accessing hardware Taps (sniffers) for IO Ninja
• And, of course, the IO Ninja software itself

The ARM64 architecture has gained significant traction, as it is now being used in Apple M1 and M2 chips, all modern Raspberry Pis, and a plethora of other Linux devices. As a result, IO Ninja customers have been increasingly asking for ARM64 support, and the 5.3.2 release addresses this. Now, IO Ninja and Device Monitor run seamlessly on all ARM64 Linux systems, and there is a native build of IO Ninja for Apple M1/M2 devices.

Also included in the release are numerous improvements, notably, fixes for startup crashes under qt5ct (Qt customization tool), regressions in Modbus ASCII Analyzer, and potentially incorrect colorization of specific patterns by the Regex Markup engine.
