Evaluating Performance with the ADCPro Software
Only one of each kind of plug-in can be loaded at a time. If you select a different plug-in, the previous
plug-in is unloaded.
The ADS1274EVM-PDK plug-in for ADCPro provides complete control over all settings of the ADS1274. It
consists of a tabbed interface (see
), with different functions available on different tabs. These
controls are described in this section.
You can adjust the ADS1274EVM settings when it is not acquiring data. During acquisition, all controls are
disabled and settings may not be changed.
When you change a setting on the ADS1274EVM plug-in, the setting immediately updates on the board.
Settings on the ADS1274EVM correspond to settings described in the ADS1274 product data sheet; see
the
for details.
Because the effective data rate of the ADS1274 depends upon settings of the Clock Freq and Operating
Mode, the
Data Rate
indicator in the upper right corner of the plug-in interface is always visible and
updates whenever a setting changes that affects the data rate.
The ADS1274 can acquire from one to four channels simultaneously. The Channel Enable tab (as shown
in
) provides the control to turn each channel on or off.

In addition, the Manual Control button (shown in
) can be used to enable or disable all the
channels.
