The TSC2117 control software exposes most features of the TSC2117 through an intuitive graphical user
interface.
Note:
Before Windows on the PC can use the TSC2117EVM-K as a sound card, the TSC2117 on
the EVM must be configured (sampling rate, audio routing, internal amplifier settings etc.)
with the TSC2117 control software.
Download the TSC2117 control software (
SLAC264
) from the TSC2117 product folder at
http://www.ti.com
and launch the program (
SLAC264
).
This file is a self-extracting archive. The default target folder is:
C:\Program Files\Texas Instruments\TSC2117
Click the Unzip button to complete the installation.
The TSC2117 control software is now available in the target folder. The name of the executable is
TSC2117.exe
To launch the TSC2117 control software, navigate to the target folder with the Windows Explorer and
double click TSC2117.exe.
The TSC2117 control software presents a block diagram view of the TSC2117 (or select modules within
the TSC2117).
The block diagram consists of active objects that can react to user input (for example switches or
amplifiers with variable gain that show a volume control on a mouse click event).
Note:
Each active object will change color to red if the mouse cursor is above the object. Clicking
the object will trigger its function.
Some active objects are linked to control register(s) of the TSC2117 in a two way fashion. If an EVM is
connected, the control software will update the appropriate register(s) whenever an active object is
triggered. If a register that is linked to an active object is changed via other components (for example the
script interpreter or the register inspector), the active object will change its state accordingly.
The control software will automatically detect a TSC2117EVM-K once it is connected to a USB port of the
PC.
If no TSC2117EVM-K is connected to the PC, the control software changes to a simulation mode, where it
is possible to retrieve script commands based on user input within the block diagram.
