PC Hardware Requirements
TEMS Investigation is designed to run on a standard PC and interfaces with the connected devices mainly through USB or serial ports. Processor and RAM requirements are strongly dependent on what external devices are connected and what tasks they will perform. Recommended minimum configuration is: Pentium T7200 or AMD TL-58 class CPU, preferably with dedicated graphics card from ATI or nVidia; 1 GB RAM. Note that it is not advisable to collect data with more than one device, or to collect data in an LTE or HSPA network, using the configuration above. When using TI for highspeed data testing or multiple devices we strongly recommend using a computer with a dedicated grafic card. All details regarding hardware requirements can be found in the Getting Started Manual section 5.1.
