Seismic Evaluation Software Installation

Important: For reliable USB communication, the USBXpress driver must be installed after the Seismic
Evaluation Software installation but before launching the application. The USBXpress driver files are in-
cluded in a sub-folder as part of the installation.
To install the Cirrus Logic Seismic Evaluation Software:
• Go to the Cirrus Logic Industrial Software web page (http://www.cirrus.com/industrialsoftware). Click
the link for "Cirrus Seismic Evaluation GUI" to get to the download page and then click the link for "Cir-
rus Seismic Evaluation GUI Release Vxx" (xx indicates the version number).
• Read the software license terms and click "Accept" to download the "SeismicEvalGUI_vxx.zip" file to
any directory on the PC.
• Unzip the downloaded file to any directory and a "Distribution\Volume1" sub-folder containing the in-
stallation application will automatically be created.
• Open the "Volume1" sub-folder and run "setup.exe". If the Seismic Evaluation Software has been pre-
viously installed, the uninstall wizard will automatically remove the previous version and you will need
to run "setup.exe" again.
• Follow the instructions presented by the Cirrus Seismic Evaluation Installation Wizard. The default in-
stallation location is "C:\Program Files\Cirrus Seismic Evaluation".
An application note, AN271 - Cirrus Seismic Evaluation GUI Installation Guide, is available from the Cirrus
Logic web site with step-by-step instructions on installing the Seismic Evaluation Software.
