EVAL-AD5940 Evaluation Kit User Guide
QUICK TEST
After the
AD5940
evaluation kit is set up and the SensorPal
software is installed, perform a quick out-of-the-box test to
ensure the board is set up and working properly. As an example,
quickly test the body impedance measurements by taking the
following steps:
1.
Plug the
AD5940ARDZ
Arduino connectors.
2.
Plug the
ADICUP3029
on the board.
3.
Plug the
AD5940-BioElectric
the
AD5940ARDZ
board.
4.
Plug the
AD5940
impedance test board into the microUSB
port on the
AD5940-BioElectric
as in Figure 15.

5.
On the bottommost bank on the impedance test board
(labeled S1 and the only horizontal bank on the board),
press switch number 1 (the leftmost switch) downwards
using a paperclip or pencil to activate a 100 Ω resistance
value.
6.
Open the SensorPal GUI and ensure the correct COM port
is connected.
7.
Under the Bio-Electric Techniques section in the tool belt,
drag the Body Impedance measurement into the work
area. Delete any other existing measurements in the work
area by hovering over the measurement and pressing the
trash bin icon in the bottom right corner.
8.
Click the Body Impedance measurement to highlight it
and view the configurable parameters beneath (keep all
default parameter values).
9.
Press the green Measure button to begin collecting data
until the measurement is complete.
10. The resulting graph looks similar to the one in Figure 16,
with the impedance measurements very close to 100 Ω.
