Verify that the EVM is properly connected to the application by looking in the lower left corner of the
TAS5753MD application. A green status circle indicates that the TAS5753MDEVM is properly connected
to the computer. The device programming is done automatically when opening the application. If the
status circle is not green, the EVM may be connected but it is likely not correctly programmed as the
