6 The Control Tabs
All of the main features and many options are selected by choosing one of the Control Tabs. This
is the horizontal menu list immediately below the Main Menu. After the user selects the device,
the application automatically opens into the Control Tab for the Demo Panel. It is best to first
work with the Demo Panel to begin learning how to use this application and the other Control
Tabs. The following sections describe the functions of each Control Tab in more detail.
6.1
Demo Panel
The Demo Panel is important, because it enables complete, proven, and working examples of
how to configure the device on the daughter card. This panel also will automatically initialize the
EVB (if necessary) and do other initialization as may be needed to start up the device on the
daughter card. The idea of this panel is to be able to use the EVB with almost no understanding
of any other function of the EVB and its many options.
The Demo Panel breaks down operation of the EVB into three simple steps. These are grouped
together visually on the PC screen, and each group is labeled as a numbered Step.
