SP259 Device drivers

Windows

ScanaStudio V6 does not bundle device drivers. Install the Ikalogic USB driver package once, before connecting the device. It is the only Ikalogic installer that needs administrator rights: ScanaStudio itself installs per-user and never prompts for UAC.

SP259 uses FTDI's FT601 USB 3.0 interface, which relies on FTDI's D3XX driver. If the device still shows a warning in Device Manager after running the Ikalogic driver installer, install the D3XX driver directly from FTDI:

Linux and macOS

No drivers are needed on Linux or macOS.

On Linux, the device is visible but not openable until the udev rules are installed. The ScanaStudio .deb, .rpm and the tarball's install.sh all place 60-ikalogic.rules in /etc/udev/rules.d for you. If the device shows up but refuses to open, the installer was run without root or with --no-udev: re-run it, or reload the rules by hand:

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger

See Linux: device permissions for details.
