1. Overview This Read Me file contains last-minute product information for the TeleScan PE™ software.

2. System Requirements For optimal performance, it is recommended that the software is installed and operated on a host machine that is of a recent generation of personal computers architecture, and that at least the minimum requirements for memory, storage and display requirement are kept. However, the software could operate on some machines that are below the minimum requirements specified here, at the cost of slower performance of the system and limited usability of the software.

2.1. Software Operating System:  Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7.  The latest Service Pack available for the Windows OS in use is required.  For ® installations : Fedora 18 and 22, Ubuntu 13.04 and 14.04.3 LTS, RedHat 6.5 (x64 only), CentOS 6.5 and 6.7

Required applications: There are no additional requirements for additional software to be installed on the host machine.

Linux Installations: There are several pre-requisites for installing TeleScan PE on Linux. You should have superuser privileges to install all of them.

Build environment:

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install build-essential Fedora: sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++ CentOS: sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++

Linux kernel headers:

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$( -r) Fedora: sudo yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers CentOS: sudo yum install kernel-devel kernel-headers

For CentOS 32bit version you may need to install the xcb prerequisites:

CentOS 32bit: sudo yum install compat-xcb-util.i686 xcb-util.i686 xcb-util-image.i686 xcb-util-keysyms.i686 xcb- util-wm.i686

For CentOS 6.7 32bit version you may need to create to kernel sources:

CentOS 6.7 32bit: sudo -s /usr/src/kernels/$(uname -r) /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build

It is possible that you might not find the kernel headers in repository for older versions of kernel. The original *.iso image or DVD may help you, or you can update kernel by doing:

Ubuntu: sudo apt-get update Fedora: sudo yum update CentOS: sudo yum update

You may have to restart your computer to run the latest kernel.

Note: If you are running on 32-bit PAE kernel, then you have to change package name to install correct headers, like for Fedora:

Fedora: sudo yum install kernel-PAE-devel kernel-headers

Before proceed make sure kernel headers match kernel version (uname -r).

Libpng on Fedora:

Install libpng12 package on Fedora distribution to run TeleScanPE Help:

Fedora: yum install libpng12.

2.2. Hardware Memory (RAM): The TeleScan PE™ software uses about 100MB of RAM space for its operation. In general, as you might run other software than the TeleScan PE™ at the same time, we recommend the host machine would have more RAM space than the amount required for TeleScan PE™. Non-volatile Storage (SDD or Hard Disk): Storage space of 50MB is required for installing the TeleScan PE™ software on the host machine. Display: To take full advantage of the rich visualization and analysis of Teledyne LeCroy software it is recommended that the display is set to at least 1050 lines of vertical resolution with at least 24-bit color depth. The minimum requirement for the display is a resolution of 1024x768 with at least 16-bit color depth. Connectivity: There are no special requirements for peripheral connectivity. However, to allow for downloading of newer versions of the software it is recommended that a high-speed internet connection is available.
