1. Setup
1.1
Initial Startup
To set up and operate the ZMOD4410 Evaluation Kit (EVK) with the ZMOD4410, refer to the ZMOD4410 EVK
Quick Start Guide included in the kit.
1.2
Required or Recommended User Equipment
By default, the internal supply voltage for powering the Sensor Board is generated from the USB voltage
supplied by the user's computer via the USB cable. If there is a need for currents higher than the defined USB
Standard (usually 500mA at 5V), an external voltage supply source can be used instead of the internally
generated voltage supply provided on the Communication Board.
The external supply powers only the sensor modules, and not the communication board itself. The supply must
meet the following requirements:
■
Voltage 1.8V to 3.6V
■
Current must meet the user's specifications. The minimum is 30mA for electronics with additional need for
each gas sensor module of approximately 13mA at 1.8V voltage supply.

Software Installation and Setup
Complete the following procedure to download and install the Gas Evaluation Software with the kit connected:
1. Download the ZMOD4410 Gas Sensor Evaluation Software file from the
2. Double-click on the executable file GasSensorEvaluation_Installer to start and follow the installation steps.
3. During initial installation or repair of Gas Sensor Evaluation Software, the USB drivers for the FTDI
communication chip may need to be installed. A manual download and installation of the latest FTDI driver is
also possible from the
Figure 1 shows an example of the initial display after execution of the installed Gas Evaluation Software. Select
a measurement mode to run the sensor. The best sensor module performance can be seen in the "IAQ 2
operation mode to measure IAQ/TVOC/eCO
or alternatively choose the "Sulfur Odor Discrimination" to make a differentiation to sulfur based odors. For
power critical applications it is recommended to use the Ultra-Low Power (ULP) operation modes.
