Collecting Data

Once you have configured the ADSXXXXEVM device for your test scenario, pressing the ADCPro

Acquire

button starts the collection of the number of data points specified in the Test plug-in

Block Size

control.

The ADSXXXXEVM-PDK plug-in disables all the front panel controls while acquiring and displays a
progress bar, as shown in

Figure 17

.

Troubleshooting

If ADCPro stops responding while the ADSXXXXEVM-PDK is connected, unplug the power supply from
the PDK. Unload and reload the plug-in before reapplying power to the PDK.
