Hardware and software required for Raspberry Pi tutorial
In addition to logi.CAD 3, you will need the following to reproduce the steps of the tutorial:
Hardware
→PiFace as additional equipment for the Raspberry Pi
SD card that meets the following requirements
Requirements for SD card
The SD card must have 4 GB memory at least.
The SD card must be compatible to the Raspberry Pi. As there are numerous models of SD cards, logi.cals recommends to purchase the SD card when purchasing the Raspberry Pi. If you want to use an existing SD card, a list of working and non-working SD cards can be found under: http://elinux.org/RPi_SD_cards
An executable →Raspbian must exist on the SD card. Its download is possible under: https://www.raspberrypi.org/software/operating-systems/#raspberry-pi-os-32-bit – Best practice is to use the current Raspbian Lite version.
A setup instruction for the SD card is available under: http://elinux.org/RPi_Easy_SD_Card_Setup – Proceed as specified within the section "Flashing the SD Card using ..." that is valid for your operating system.
This tutorial does not contain instructions how to use an →I2C bus with Raspberry Pi. If you need support for this usage, contact logi.cals.
Software
installation package logiRTS_Vx.y.z_Raspbian.tar.gz for →logi.RTS that is to be used with Raspberry Pi
This installation package is included in the delivery range of logi.CAD 3. x.y.z is a placeholder for the respective version number.Version for logi.RTS to be installed
Install the version of logi.RTS that is included in the downloaded package. See "Release notes for current version" for information which version of logi.RTS is valid for the current version of logi.CAD 3.
But mind the following: If you are using versions < 2.3.602 of logi.RTS, there might be unexpected terminations of the licensed logi.RTS version on the Raspberry Pi.the following auxiliary tools that are available for free
Tool
Purpose
Download is possible:
Angry IP Scanner
scanner to detect the IP-address of the Raspberry Pi
PSCP
a SCP client, secure transfer of files (e.g. logi.RTS package) onto the Raspberry Pi

PuTTY
SSH and telnet client, to connect to the Raspberry Pi
