ACE SOFTWARE OPERATION

LAUNCHING THE SOFTWARE

After the EVAL-AD7606C18FMCZ and
connected to the PC, launch the ACE software by taking the
following steps:
1. From the Start menu of the PC, select All Programs >
Analog Devices > ACE> ACE.exe to open the ACE
software main window shown in Figure 10.
2. If the EVAL-AD7606C18FMCZ is not connected to the
USB port via the SDP-H1 when the ACE software launches,
the AD7606C-18 Board icon does not appear in the
Attached Hardware section in ACE (see Figure 10). To
make the AD7606C-18 Board icon appear, connect the
EVAL-AD7606C18FMCZ and the SDP-H1 to the USB
port of the PC, wait a few seconds, and then follow the
instructions in the dialog box that opens.
3. Double click the AD7606C-18 Board icon to open the
AD7606C-18 Board view window shown in Figure 11.
4. Double click the AD7606C-18 chip icon in the AD7606C-
18 Board view window to open the AD7606C-18 chip
view window shown in Figure 12.
5. Click Software Defaults and then click Apply Changes to
apply the default settings to the AD7606C-18.

DESCRIPTION OF CHIP VIEW WINDOW

After completing the steps in the Software Installation section, set
up the system for data capture.
Block icons that are dark blue are programmable blocks.
Clicking a dark blue block icon opens a configurable pop-up
window that allows customization for the data capture, as
shown for the Channel 1 input range in Figure 13.
The available programmable blocks in the AD7606C-18 chip
view window are as follows:
•
Analog input range, on a per channel basis, through the
icon located on each PGA block.
•
Bandwidth mode, on a per channel basis, through each
low-pass filter (LPF) block.
•
System gain, offset, and phase calibration settings, on a per
channel basis.
•
Diagnostic multiplexer.
•
Oversampling ratio lines. By setting all the oversampling
ratio lines high, the AD7606C-18 enters software mode,
and the oversampling ratio is set through the memory
map. In hardware mode, these lines select the
oversampling ratio.
•
Data interface, either serial or parallel.
•
Reference selection, either internal or external, through the
REF SELECT switch.
