Install the evaluation software before connecting the evaluation 
board and the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 board to the USB port of the 

PC to ensure that the evaluation system is correctly recognized 
when connected to the PC. 
There are two parts to the installation: 
1.

Figure 5 to Figure 9 show the steps to take to install the 

EVAL-

AD7492SDZ

 evaluation software. Figure 10 to Figure 13 show 

the steps to take to install the 

EVAL-SDP-CB1Z

 drivers. Proceed 

through all of the installation steps allowing the software and 
drivers to be placed in the appropriate locations. Until the software 
and drivers have been installed, do not connect the 

EVAL-SDP-

CB1Z

 board to the PC.
