GETTING STARTED 

This section provides quick start procedures for using the 

EVAL-ADXRS290Z-M

 board and describes both the default 

and optional settings. Follow these steps to set up and run the 

ADXRS290

 evaluation system: 

1.

 

Install the USB drivers for the ISEB.  

2.

 

Connect the ISEB hardware to the PC. 

3.

 

Install the latest ISEB firmware revision onto the ISEB 
hardware from the 

FTP

 site. This step is unnecessary for 

most cases because the default firmware matches the 
default GUI. If you have ever reprogrammed the 
microcontroller unit (MCU) for other applications, or the 
firmware or GUI is updated by Analog Devices, you need 
to download the corresponding firmware for evaluating the 

ADXRS290

. The firmware and GUI installer on the 

FTP

 

site must always match each other. When installing the 
firmware, ensure that the satellite board is disconnected 
from the main board. 

4.

 

Install the run time engine and the 

ADXRS290

 evaluation 

GUI. 

5.

 

Configure the ISEB hardware. 

6.

 

Launch the 

ADXRS290

 software evaluation GUI and test 

the devices. 

SOFTWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 

Install USB Drivers 

The USB driver supports Windows 7 and its previous operating 
systems. To install the USB drivers, follow these steps: 

1.

 

Execute the 

ADI_ISEB_USB_Drivers.exe

 file located in 

ftp://ftp.analog.com/pub/iMEMS_Sensor_Eval/ISEB_USB_
Driver/.

 

2.

 

Follow the on-screen instructions to install the drivers. 

3.

 

Click 

Continue Anyway

 when prompted that the drivers 

are not tested. 

After the previous steps are complete, connect the ISEB to the 
computer via the included USB A to mini-B cable. If the previously 
installed drivers are not automatically associated with the device, 
you may need to select the drivers manually, as follows: 

1.

 

Connect the USB A to mini-B cable to the PC and then to 
the ISEB. The satellite board does not need to be connected 
for this step. New hardware is detected upon completion of 
this step.  

2.

 

If prompted to install drivers again, click 

Install from a list 

or specific location (Advanced)

, and then click 

Next

 (see 

Figure 2).
