The LP5867 Graphical User Interface
(GUI) is a convenient tool for controlling and evaluating all functions of LP5867.
This section provides guidance on using the GUI.
- Before opening the LP5867GUI.exe
file, check that the hardware is connected by plugging the USB cable into the
USB port of the computer.
