Using of GUI SW
After connection of the battery supply and mini USB
cable to the evaluation board, the button
in status bar
should be used to relist all active virtual COM ports. From
the list the COM port where evaluation board is connected
should be selected. In case there is no real hardware
available, the “Mockup” simulation mode can be selected to
run the GUI SW.
After clicking “Connect” button, the successful
connection status should be indicated in status bar:
After scanning of all positions is finished, list of plugged
daughter boards will appear in menu “Application” and also
will be graphically displayed on the main screen. This is
possible thanks to the EEPROM memory assembled on each
daughter board and bearing all necessary information.
Figure 6. Graphical Representation of Plugged Daughter Boards
Window allowing to access all SPI registers and control
all external signals of each individual device can be then
open by clicking on graphical representation of daughter
board or from menu “Application”.
There is a possibility to use low level access where each
individual bit in SPI frame can be controlled via “SPI Raw”
(16 bits frames) or “SPI Raw 4B” (32 bits frames) panel.
This allows to create non−standard frames for testing
purposes (e.g. with corrupted parity).
