HOW TO USE THE SOFTWARE FOR TESTING
GETTING STARTED
Before running the software evaluation GUI, press the SW2
button to reset the ISEB as is described in the Installing the
Latest ISEB Firmware section. This reset removes any errors
lingering due to an improper shutdown or disconnection from
the PC.
After completion of the software GUI installation routine, a
shortcut to launch the executable is added to the Program Menu >
Analog Devices - Inertial Sensor Eval and to your desktop. To
launch the evaluation GUI, click
window similar to the one shown in Figure 14 displays.
At this point, the functionality of the GUI completely
deactivates. Before testing any devices, associate the software
GUI with the previously installed hardware through the COM
port. See the PC Device Manager area under the Ports (COM
& LPT) submenu to determine which COM port is assigned to
the Analog Devices inertial sensor evaluation system (see Figure 6).

Select this COM port from the drop-down menu, and click
Connect to begin using the GUI.
After the COM port is connected, the full functionality of the
software evaluation GUI is available for use. The following
sections describe the purpose of each tab of the GUI. You can
exit the GUI at any time; click Quit Program, which is located
in the lower right corner of the startup window.
Do not press the reset button (SW2) while the GUI is running
because it causes the ISEB and the software GUI to lose sync
and the evaluation system to no longer function properly.
Additionally, if for any reason the ISEB and the software
evaluation GUI do not appear to be properly communicating,
perform the following reset routine:
1.
Click Quit Program or select File > Exit to close the
software GUI.
2.
When the software GUI is closed, press the reset button
(SW2) to reset the ISEB.
3.
Restart the software GUI.
