CAUTION
Do not connect the ADS1256EVM-PDK before installing the software. Failure to
observe this may cause Microsoft Windows to not recognize the ADS1256EVM-
PDK.
The latest software is available from Texas Instruments' website at http://www.ti.com/tool/ADS1256EVM-
PDK. Download the ADCPro Installer from the ADCPro product information page on the TI website. Refer
to the ADCPro User Guide for instructions on installing and using ADCPro.
To install the ADS1256EVM-PDK plug-in, download and run the file: ADS1256evm-pdk-plug-in-1.0.0.exe
from the ADS1256EVM-PDK product folder (1.0.0 is the version number, and increments with software
version releases). Double-click the file to run it; then follow the instructions shown.
Installation for the ADS1256EVM plug-in should be relatively straightforward. The plug-in comes as an
executable file. Once started, the program leads the user through the screens shown in Figure 8 through
