This section discusses how to install the AMC80EVM software.

4.1 Operating Systems for AMC80EVM Software

The AMC80EVM software has been tested on the Microsoft Windows XP operating system (OS) with

United States and European regional settings. The software should also function on other Windows

operating systems.

4.2 AMC80EVM Software Installation

The AMC80EVM software is included on the CD that is shipped with the EVM kit. It is also available

through the AMC80EVM product folder on the TI website. To download the software to your system, insert

the disc into an available CD-ROM drive. Navigate to the drive contents and open the AMC80EVM

software folder. Locate the compressed file (AMC80EVM.zip) and open it. Using WinZIP

or a similar file

compression program; extract the AMC80EVM files into a specific AMC80EVM folder (for example,

C:\AMC80\AMC80EVM) on your hard drive.

Once the files are extracted, navigate to the AMC80EVM folder you created on your hard drive. Locate the

setup.exe file and execute it to start the installation. The AMC80EVM software installer should begin the

installation process as shown in Figure 8.
