GUI Configuration

After making the necessary connections, follow the guidelines for configuring the GUI and to ensure 
establishment of communication between the power module and the host PC.

1.

  Measure 5V on the VDDB pin of the VIA module to ensure power is provided to the digital 

communication interface. If using an evaluation board, provide 5V VDDB from an external source.

2.

  Power up module within operating range specified by the device datasheet.

3.

  Open the Vicor Digital Interface Demo Board software installed on the connected host PC.

4.

  Go to 

Tools -> Scan for Digital Supervisor

 to detect digital supervisor as shown in Figure 4.1.

5.

  Go to

 Tools -> Scan for Devices

 and select desired power module device as shown in Figure

 

4.2.

6.

  Verify the desired power module device is selected (highlighted in green) for communication 

through the GUI.
