1 Installation
Actually Chronomotion does not need to be "installed". Just downloading and putting the right files together is enough.
1.1 Windows 32Bit
A version that comes bundled with JRE and the rxtx DLL should be ready for launching without any installation or additional downloads.
1.2 Linux and Mac Requirements
- You need to have JAVA installed. Download
- Download the right Chronomotion build for your platform: Download
- Download the rxtx library and put the matching file for your operating system it into the same folder as Chronomotion.
- Start Chronomotion via commandline/terminal/console
2 Troubleshooting
To see error messages and reports of what is missing/not working be sure to run the software from commandline/terminal/console rather than just double clicking on it.
3 Windows
3.1 Windows 64Bit
If you are not happy with the provided bundled Win32 package and you want to use run Chronomotion in 64bit you need both a Java 64Bit JRE and the RXTX 64bit DLLs. The official rxtx builds contain no Windows 64Bit DLLS. But there are people providing these on their own website, like: http://www.cloudhopper.com/opensource/rxtx/
Just download and put the DLLS into the same directory as your Chronomotion files.
4 Linux
No trouble reported so far
5 Mac
