DETAILED SOFTWARE DESCRIPTION
The ADAR1000-EVALZ evaluation software is organized as a
number of tabs. Each tab contains a different set of functions to
control the ADAR1000-EVALZ. Beneath the content area of the
current tab, a log of each hardware control instruction that the
software sends to the ADAR1000-EVALZ is shown near the
bottom of the window. The last line of the window displays the
status of the connection between the ADAR1000-EVALZ
evaluation software and the ADAR1000-EVALZ hardware.
CONNECTION TAB
The
Connection
tab displays the two different SDP adapters
that can be used to provide the USB interface to the
ADAR1000-EVALZ (see Figure 27).
Click the
Connect
button to initialize communication between
the ADAR1000-EVALZ evaluation software and the ADAR1000-
EVALZ. When communication is established, the
SDP board
connected
message displays on the status line at the bottom of
the window.
The
ADDR0
and
ADDR1
check boxes in Figure 27 allow the
setting or clearing of the two corresponding address bits, AD0
and AD1, on the
device. These two bits determine
which of the four ADAR1000-EVALZ boards on the same serial
bus responds to programming information from the bus.
