EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE
INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The EVA L-AD5222SDZ evaluation kit includes evaluation
board software provided on a CD. The software is compatible
with Windows® XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 (both
32-bit and 64-bit).
Install the software before connecting the SDP-B board to the USB
port of the PC to ensure that the SDP-B board is recognized
when it is connected to the PC.
1. Start the Windows operating system and insert the CD.
2. The installation software opens automatically. If it does
not, run the setup.exe file from the CD.
3. After installation is completed, power up the evaluation
board as described in the Power Supplies section.
4. Connect the EVA L -AD5222SDZ to the SDP-B board and the
SDP-B board to the PC using the USB cable included in the
evaluation kit.
5. When the software detects the evaluation board, follow the
instructions that appear to finalize the installation.
To uninstall the program, click Start > Control Panel > Add or
Remove Programs > AD5222 Eval Board.
RUNNING THE SOFTWARE
To run the program, do the following:
1. Click Start > All Programs > Analog Devices > AD5222

2. If the SDP-B board is not connected to the USB port when
the software is launched, a connectivity error displays (see
