Operating System Drivers

Within the operating system, the AMT Unified driver must be installed to remove unknown devices in the Device Manager. The
driver is discussed below. Unlike previous versions (3, 4, or 5) where there were two separate HECI and LMS/SOL drivers
from customer re-install stand-point, the current version provides both drivers in a common package called AMT Unified
Driver. When the unified driver package is installed, it manages both PCI devices in the Device Manager.
AMT Unified Driver
®
The Intel AMT Serial-Over-LAN (SOL) / Local Manageability Service (LMS) driver is available on support.dell.com and on
the ResourceCD under Chipset Drivers. The driver is labeled Intel AMT SOL/LMS. Once the driver is obtained, execute the
file; it unzips and prompts the user to continue the installation process.
Once you install the SOL/LMS driver, the PCI Serial Port entry becomes the Intel Active Management Technology - SOL
(COM3) entry.
HECI Driver
The Intel AMT Host Embedded Controller Interface (HECI) driver is available on support.dell.com and on the ResourceCD
under Chipset Drivers. The driver is labeled Intel AMT HECI. Once the driver is obtained, execute the file; it unzips and
prompts the user to continue the installation process.
Once you install the HECI drivers, the PCI Simple Communications Controller entry becomes the Intel Management
Engine Interface entry.
