4.3. Windows Applications for USB Debug Mode
The Biometric-EXP Windows Evaluation Software includes two Windows applications for evaluating and
debugging the Biometric-EXP Heart Rate Monitor and SpO2 functions. An installation program for the Biometric-
EXP Windows Evaluation Software is distributed with Simplicity Studio. It can be found in the
Installers
directory
within the Simplicity Studio directory structure. Following installation, the software can be launched from the
Windows Start menu.
The Windows Graphical User Interface (GUI) demo provides a waveform display of the HRM data along with the
HRM and SpO2 calculated values. The GUI demo also allows the user to record the streaming data to a file for
further analysis. A screenshot of the GUI demo is shown in Figure 9.

The Windows Console Demo provides a running, once-per-second text output of many parameters that are used
within the HRM and SpO2 algorithms including the HRM and SpO2 results. This tool can be used for advanced
analysis of the HRM and SpO2 streaming data; however, the details of the parameters and how to use them to
analyze a HRM-SpO2 recording is beyond the scope of this document. A screen shot of the Console demo is show
in Figure 10.
