Application Notes


Last Update: May 21, 2024 @ 18:22

These pages provide detailed discussions of specific applications using PiXCL products. Some are ideas we worked on as the Decaf boards were developed, while others are ideas or projects sent in by users.

You can download the latest 10MB PiXCL  help file and look at what PiXCL can do.  Please note that for security reasons, Windows blocks downloaded CHM content display: you will need to use File Explorer–>Properties to unblock it. If you are running linux, you can use the xchm utility app (install if required with sudo apt-get install xchm ). This has been tested with ubuntu 20.04 and the latest Raspbian.
