4.1 Installing the software

Figure 6. Copying the software files to your computer
For the Ringo software to work, the FT232H driver for the USB-I
2
C interface must be
installed. When the interface is connected via USB for the first time, this installation
happens automatically. If the driver is not installed automatically, use the included drivers
to install it manually (a video on the get started page shows how to install the driver
manually).
Note:
When the FT232H driver is not installed, the Ringo software does not work.
The Ringo program does not require installation. Double-clicking Ringo.exe, starts the
software. Keep the other files and folders in the same directory because Ringo uses
them.
4.2 User manual and tutorial videos for the Ringo software
To get familiar with using the software and getting to know the functions that are
available, user manuals and videos are included in the Ringo GUI software. They can be
accessed easily from the Ringo GUI.
