Figure 10. AMC80EVM Software Interface

Figure 11 shows an error that pops up if the computer cannot communicate with the AMC80EVM. If you

receive this error, first ensure that the USB cable is properly connected on both ends. Another possible

source for this error is a problem with the computer USB Human Interface Device driver. Make sure that

when you plug the in the USB cable, the computer recognizes the device. If the sound is on, you will hear

the distinctive sound that you expect when a USB device is properly connected to the PC.
