Quickstart
On Windows
Use GUI with included client
(1) Download the GUI with included client on release page
(2) Extract the .7z file to a path. The target path should not contain non-ASCII characters
(3) Open Proxmark3GUI.exe in the GUI folder, then select the language and click "OK". Now you can use it
Use the GUI with your own client
(1) Download the standalone GUI on release page
(2) Extract the .7z file to a path. The target path should not contain non-ASCII characters. Make sure the client path and the GUI path are different.
(3) Open the GUI. Input the client path in the "Client Path" editbox on the top of the main window.
(4) Go to "Settings" panel. Input the config file path which matching the client you use.
(5) If setup.bat is required, input the script path in the "Preload script path" editbox.
(6) If using RRG/Iceman repo, input "-p <port> -f" in the "Start arguments" editbox.
On Linux
(1) Build the GUI by following the instructions on README
(2) Config the GUI with the same steps of "On Windows"->"Use the GUI with your own client"
(3) You might need to change "<port>" to "/dev/<port>" in "Settings"->"Start arguments" editbox
(4) If you are using Raspbian(Raspberry OS), you might need to check "Keep the client active even the PM3 hardware is disconnected." in the "Settings" panel
About preload script
The client might refer to some environment variables to load dependencies
For example, the RRG client on Windows requires these environment variables
QT_PLUGIN_PATH=<client path>\libs\
QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH=<client path>\libs\
PATH=<client path>\libs\;<client path>\libs\shell\;<old PATH variable>
MSYSTEM=MINGW64
So the GUI will run "<client path>\setup.bat" before loading the client, which will set the environment variables to the client properly. The script will not affect the system environment variables.
The contents of setup.bat are as follows
@echo off
set "HOME=%~dp0"
set "QT_PLUGIN_PATH=%HOME%\libs\"
set "QT_QPA_PLATFORM_PLUGIN_PATH=%QT_PLUGIN_PATH%"
set "PATH=%QT_PLUGIN_PATH%;%QT_PLUGIN_PATH%shell\;%PATH%"
set MSYSTEM=MINGW64
You can write your own script by referring to it if you need other client, then input the script path in the "Preload script path" editbox.
