Configuring the lambda.7 under macOS

The Force Dimension development folder must be installed onto your system before the lambda.7
can be used. To do this, perform the following steps:

2.
Open the
sdk-<version>.dmg
file for your version of macOS from the \
macOS
folder and
extract the
sdk-<version>
folder to the desired location (typically your home folder).
This will create a
sdk-<version>
development folder in the target location.
