INERTIAL SENSOR EVALUATION SYSTEM SETUP

DOWNLOADING ALL FILES TO A PC 

Before proceeding with the installation routine, it is important 
to first download all files included on the ADXRS800 install-
ation CD-ROM to a local folder on the host PC. Browse to a 
destination directory on the host PC and right click to select 

New/Folder

. Name this folder, and copy the CD-ROM files into 

this new location. You are now ready to begin the installation 
routine. 

ISEB HARDWARE SETUP 

Before connecting the ISEB hardware to the PC via the included 
USB cable, drivers must be installed so that the PC properly 
recognizes the ISEB main board. The USB drivers for the ISEB 
are available in the /

ISEB_USB

/ folder on the packaged CD. 

Installing the USB Drivers for the ISEB 

To install the USB drivers, follow these steps: 
1.

 

Execute the 

ADI_ISEB_USB_Drivers.exe

 file located in 

/

ISEB_USB

/.  

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

3.

 

Select 

Don’t search. I will choose the driver to install

 (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.

COM PORT VERIFICATION 

Installing the latest firmware revision, as well as operating the 
ADXRS800 evaluation GUI, requires that you know the 
communications port that is assigned to the ISEB main board. 
With the ISEB main board connected to the PC, you should 
perform the following steps to determine the assigned COM 
port number.
