3 Software Installation
The following steps outline the installation of the software tools/utilities required to operate the SEK
system. These software components (supplied with the GC5325SEK) must be installed:
• MATLAB ™ control libraries and tools, to program and control the EVM system. This requires
Windows ™ XP SP2 and a COM port on the host PC.
• USB-Ethernet software driver (see section 2.1, USB to Ethernet Adapter Installation and section 2.2,
Configure the USB to Ethernet Network, in the TSW3100 user's guide
SLLU101 )
• DSP-Weffen USB-to-UHPI software driver.
3.1 MATLAB ™ Control Libraries and Tools
The user can begin with the installation of the MATLAB control libraries and tools. The required software is
included on the provided compact disc (CD).
The following steps outline this installation:
1. Create the following directory: C:\GC5325. Copy the \GC5325EVMGUI_xpxxx (where xpxxx is the GUI
version) directory from the provided CD into C:\GC5325\
2. Go to the C:\GC5325\GC5325EVMGUI_xpxxx \ directory, and click on MCRInstaller.exe and install
the MATLAB runtime library.
3.2 TSW3100 Software and Drivers
The GC5325SEK comes with a USB-to-Ethernet adapter that can be used to communicate between a
host PC USB port and the TSW3100. The software/driver installation procedure for this product can be
found in the TSW3100EVM User's Guide and must be installed now if it has not already been installed.
The TSW3100EVM User
’ s Guide and software can be found under the TSW3100 directory on the
provided CD.
3.3 DSP-Weuffen USB-to-UHPI Software and Driver
For the USB-UHPI software, the required device drivers are included in the C:\GC5325EVMGUI_xpxxx
\DLL_drivers\ usb_UHPI directory.
The following steps outline this installation:
1. Ensure that the USB cable from the USB-UHPI EVM (small green board) on top of the GC5325EVM to
the host PC USB port is installed.
2. Turn on the GC5325EVM and TSW3100 using switch SW4 on the GC5325EVM.
3. The PC automatically detects a new device. At the New hardware installation prompt, select No, not at
this time.
4. Select User specified location for the drivers, and browse for the directory within the
\GC5325EVMGUI\DLL drivers\usb_UHPI directory. Click continue.
5. Accept the driver signature and continue.
After installing the DSP-Weuffen USB-to-UHPI and the USB-to-Ethernet adapter drivers, ensure that the
devices are installed by using the Control Panel/System/Hardware/Device Manager.
The installation of the software, tools, libraries, and drivers is now complete. Power should now be cycled
on the EVM.
