EVALUATION BOARD SOFTWARE

INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE

The EVAL-AD5252SDZ evaluation kit includes evaluation
board software provided on a CD. The software is compatible
with Windows® XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7 (both 32
and 64 bits).
Install the software before connecting the
port of the PC to ensure that the SDP board is recognized when
it is connected to the PC.
1. Start the Windows operating system and insert the CD.
2. The installation software must open automatically. If it
does not, run the setup.exe file from the CD.
3. After installation is completed, power up the evaluation
board as described in the Power Supplies section.
4. Plug the EVAL-AD5252SDZ into the SDP board and the SDP
board into the PC using the USB cable included in the box.
5. When the software detects the evaluation board, follow the
instructions that appear to finalize the installation.
To uninstall the program, click Start > Control Panel > Add or
Remove Programs > AD5252 Eval Board.
