Setting up the BOOST-DRV8711 GUI
1. Download the latest version of the GUI Composer Runtime to initially run the BOOST-DRV8711 GUI.
You must register for a TI account if you don't already have one. Select the appropriate version for
your operating system and follow the install instructions.

2. After installing the GUI Composer Runtime, copy the BOOST-DRV8711_GUIvX.X folder, located in the
Application directory of the BOOST-DRV8711 Hardware and Software Files folder and paste this folder
into the GUI Composer webapps folder located in the C:\ti\guicomposer\webapps\ directory.
(Note: if you chose a non-default installation directory in Step 1, the top-level directory may differ)
3. To run the GUI, double click the BOOST-DRV8711_GUIvX.X.exe file within the BOOST-
DRV8711_GUIvX.X folder of the webapps directory. You can make a shortcut to this .exe in order to
start it from other file locations.
**Ensure that the GUI "exe" is exactly two levels below the GUI Composer "webapps" folder. The GUI will
not start if this is incorrect. The path should look similar to this
C:\ti\guicomposer\webapps\BOOST-DRV8711_GUIvX.X\BOOST-DRV8711_GUIvX.X.exe.
(Note: if you chose a non-default installation directory in Step 1, the top-level directory may differ)
