DAC5686 EVM Operational Procedure
This chapter describes the serial interface GUI.
To prepare the DAC5686 EVM for operation, follow these steps:
1. Parallel Port Interface: Connect one end of the supplied serial interface cable to the parallel port of a
PC and the other end of the cable to J1 on the EVM and skip steps 2 to 7.
2. USB Interface: Connect the provided USB to SPI adapter board to the parallel port connector on the
EVM and to a spare USB port on the host PC using the supplied USB cable. The Windows Found New
Hardware Wizard should open; if this is not the case make sure the cable is connected properly. Select
