If the GUI is not responsive, check the other Latte scripts window, which is minimized by default. If the message Operation I2C Register Read for command [REGRx01] Failed is displayed this means that the OPT4001 IC or coupon is not detected by the motherboard. Ensure the coupon is plugged in and properly oriented.
