2 Installation
2.1 Requirements
 LiPPERT Board with LEMT
 LEMTGui needs the QT Library at version 4.8
o QTCore4.dll and QTGui4.dll for Windows (included in the Package you have
downloaded)
o libQtCore.so.4 and libQtGui.so.4 for Linux (To install Qt please see the
documentation of your Linux distribution)
 Under Windows you may need the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package
(x86) to run LEMT. This file may be downloaded directly from Microsoft at:

2.2 Windows
To access the LEMT microcontroller, a driver (porttalk.sys version V2.3 build 5.0.2195.6717 or later)
is required.
Copy porttalk.sys from the LEMT installation directory to the system32\drivers\ subdirectory of your
Windows directory (e.g. C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers). Please note that administrator privileges
might be required to access the drivers directory.
2.3 Linux
Under Linux there is no driver necessary. However, to access the LEMT microcontroller, root
privileges are mandatory.
Caution If LEMT is used to operate in a Linux environment, the standard
SMBus driver must be unloaded. Otherwise, this driver and
LEMT will collide.
Inside the kernel configuration the standard SMBus driver may
be found in:
