The ISEB should be detected automatically in the
Device
Manager
as the
ADI Inertial Sensor Evaluation System
under
the
Ports (COM & LPT)
selection. It is recommended to open
the
Device Manager
to verify hardware detection and to record the
communication port associated with the ISEB for use in the GUI.
COM PORT VERIFICATION

ADXRS450

board. With the ISEB main board connected to the PC, perform
the following steps in the Windows Vista section, the Windows
XP/Windows 2000 section, or the Windows 7 section
(depending on your system) to determine the assigned COM
