GETTING STARTED

This section provides quick start procedures for using
ADXRS290Z-M board. Both the default and optional settings
are described. The steps below should be followed to
successfully set up and run the ADXRS290 evaluation system:
1. Install the USB drivers for the inertial sensor evaluation
system (ISEB).
2. Connect the ISEB hardware to the PC.
3. Install the latest firmware revision into the ISEB hardware
(included on the ADI FTP). This step is unnecessary for
most cases since the default firmware can match the
default GUI. If you had ever reprogrammed the MCU for
other applications or the firmware / GUI is updated by
ADI, you need to download the corresponding firmware
for evaluating ADXRS290. The firmware and GUI
installer on website can always match each other. When
installing the firmware, please make sure the mother board
and the satellite board is disconnected.
4. Install run time engine and the ADXRS290 evaluation
GUI.
5. Configure the ISEB hardware.
6. Launch the ADXRS290 evaluation GUI and test devices.

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES

Install USB Drivers
So far, the USB driver supports the WIN7 and its previous OS.
To install the USB drivers, follow these steps:
1. Execute the ADI_ISEB_USB_Drivers.exe file located in
ftp://ftp.analog.com/pub/iMEMS_Sensor_Eval/ISEB_USB
_Driver/.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions to install the drivers.
3. Click Continue Anyway when prompted that the drivers
are not tested.
After the above steps are complete, you can connect the ISEB
main board to the computer via the included USB cable. If the
previously installed drivers are not automatically associated
with the device, you may need to select the drivers manually, as
follows:
1. Connect the USB A to Mini-B cable to the PC and then to
the ISEB. The satellite board does not need to be
connected for this step. New hardware is detected upon
completion of this step.
2. If prompted to install drivers again, click Install from a
list or specific location (Advanced) (see Figure 2); then
click Next.

(see Figure 3), and click Next.
4. Select ADI Inertial Sensor Evaluation System from the
model list (see Figure 4), and click Next to complete the
process.
The ISEB should be detected automatically in the Device
Manager as the ADI Inertial Sensor Evaluation System
under the Ports (COM & LPT) selection. It is recommended
to open the Device Manager to verify hardware detection and to
record the communication port associated with the ISEB for use in
the GUI.
