LQTControl is used to stabilize a laserquantum torus 532 to a certain laser frequency.
The software only runs on Microsoft Windows. To build the program from the source code, Visual Studio is required.
Since the software requires multiple proprietary libraries to be build and run, no pre-built packages can be distributed. Please build the software from the provided source files or get in contact with the developers.
Clone the LQTControl repository using git clone and install the required submodules with git submodule init and git submodule update.
Please install the following dependencies to the default paths:
- Qt 5.15.2 or higher
- PicoTech SDK
Build the LQTControl project using Visual Studio.
