INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE
The EV-AD5443/46/53SDZ evaluation kit includes the software
and drivers on CD. To install the software, follow these steps:
1. Install the software before connecting the SDP board to
the USB port of the PC.
2. Start the Windows® operating system and insert the
EV-AD5443/46/53SDZ evaluation kit CD.
3. Download the EV-AD5443/46/53SDZ LabVIEW™ software.
The correct driver, SDPDriversNET, for the SDP board
should download automatically after LabVIEW is
downloaded, supporting both 32-bit and 64-bit systems.
However, if the drivers do not download automatically, the
driver executable file can also be found in the Program
Files/Analog Devices folder. Follow the on-screen prompts
to install it.
4. After installation of the software and drivers is complete,
plug the EV-AD5443/46/53SDZ into the SDP board and the
SDP board into the PC using the USB cable included in the
box.
5. When the software detects the evaluation board, proceed
through any dialog boxes that appear to finalize the
installation (Found New Hardware Wizard/Install the
Software Automatically and so on).
RUNNING THE SOFTWARE
To run the evaluation board program, do the following:
1. Click Start/All Programs/Analog Devices/
EV-AD5443/46/53SDZ.
2. If the SDP board is not connected to the USB port when
the software is launched, a connectivity error displays (see
Figure 3). Simply connect the evaluation board to the USB
port of the PC, wait a few seconds, click Rescan, and follow
the instructions.
