2. SOFTWARE
2.1 Installation Procedure
1) Turn on the PC, running Windows 95 or 98.
2) Insert the Installation Diskette #1 into the PC.
3) Select the Run option from the Start menu.
4) At the prompt, type: A:\SETUP.EXE
<enter>.
5) The program will begin installation.
6) If it has not already been installed on the PC,
the user will be prompted to enter the direc-
tory in which to install the CVI Run-Time
Engine. The Run-Time Engine manages exe-
cutables created with LabWindows/CVI. If
the default directory is acceptable, select OK
and the Run-Time Engine will be installed
there.
7) After the Run-Time Engine is installed, the
user is prompted to enter the directory in
which to install the Eval5510/11/12/13 soft-
ware. Select OK to accept the default direc-
tory, or choose an alternate directory.
8) Once the program is installed, it can be run by
double clicking on the Eval5510/11/12/13
icon, or through the Start menu.
Note: The software is written to run with 640 x 480 res-
olution; however, it will work with 1024 x 768 resolution.
If the user interface seems to be a little small, the user
might consider setting the display settings to 640 x 480.
(640 x 480 was chosen to accommodate a variety of
computers).
2.2 Using the Software
At start-up, the title screen appears first (Figure 1).
This window contains information concerning the
software’s title, revision number, copyright date,
etc. Additionally, at the top of the screen is a menu
bar which displays user options. Notice, the menu
bar item Window is initially disabled. This elimi-
nates any conflicts with the mouse or concurrent
use of modems. Before proceeding any further, the
user is prompted to select the serial communication
port.
2.2.1 Selecting the COM Port and Part
To initialize a port, pull down option ComPorts
from the menu bar and select either COM1 or
COM2. Next, the user is prompted to select the ap-
propriate part under the Parts menu. After a port is
initialized and the correct part is selected, it is a
good idea to test the RS-232 link between the PC
and the evaluation board. To do this, pull down the
Setup menu from the menu bar and select the op-
tion TESTRS232. The user is then prompted to set
the evaluation board’s test switches to 111 and then
reset the board. Once this is done, proceed with the
test. If the test fails, check the hardware connection
and repeat again. Otherwise, set the test switches
back to the correct mode as specified in this docu-
ment, and press reset again.
2.2.2 Setup Window Functions
To make sure that the software and evaluation
board are set up correctly, it is recommended that
the user proceed to the Setup Window and test the
functionality of the part before proceeding (Figure
2). To access the Setup Window, the user can pull
down the Window menu item, or press F1 on the
keyboard. The following describes the various op-
tions and indicators in the Setup Window.
Clocking Options: This pull-down menu allows
the user to select the type of clock that will be used
with the ADC, so that the software knows what to
expect from the microcontroller. Selecting from
this menu also gives the user the DIP switch op-
tions that they must set on the evaluation board.
There are three options available on this menu:
CS5511/13 Internally Clocked - This option means
that a CS5511 or CS5513 is being used, and the mi-
crocontroller will only provide an SCLK when
clocking data from the ADC. Be sure that no jump-
er is installed on HDR7 of the CDB5510 when this
