ADIS16133/5对ADISUSB系统的评估

Click here to download the ADIS16133/5/6 Evaluation Software. The download file will contain three separate files: The CAB file (ADIS16135_Rev_4.cab), the setup file (setup.exe), and the setup list. Copy these files to a convenient folder for running the application from.

Navigate to the folder where the files were saved and double click the setup.exe file. The Welcome screen will should appear. Click OK to continue.

Choose a directory for the software application to extract the files or use the default settings (recommended) and click the computer icon button to go to the next step.

Choose a program group or use the default settings (recommended) and click Continue.

The ADIS16135_Rev_4.cab file contains USB drivers that are compatible with both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows systems. The drivers are unpacked the same time the software application is loaded by double clicking the setup.exe file. The first time the ADISUSB board is plugged into the computer (using the included USB mini cable) the hardware will be recognized and loaded. The Windows Hardware Wizard will find and install the drivers by following the steps below.

The following pictures show the final steps for USB driver install. Click on Next then click on Finish completing the installation.

After the USB driver installation is complete, connect the ADISUSB USB connector to the PC, using the USB Mini cable, from the ADISUSB kit. D2 will illuminate as soon as this connection is made. This indicates that the ADISUSB has power and is going through its start-up/initialization process. During the initialization process, several messages may appear on the screen. They are related to updating the ADISUSB firmware and establishing communication between the PC and the ADISUSB. After the updates are finished double click on the setup.exe file to launch the software application.

Once the Analog Devices ADIS16135 Evaluation Software starts-up, the Main Window will appear and look like the following picture. The second picture provides color-coded boxes to support further discussion of each function in this screen.

The orange box identifies the drop-down menus, which provide a number of useful features. The Devices option provides a list of products for ADIS1613x Evaluation, click on Devices and then select ADIS16133/5/6. The green box shows the current device selection, which in this case, identifies the ADIS16133 as the current selection.

The Registers option provides a listing of user-configurable registers in the ADIS1613x and also provides read/write access to each one of these registers.

The Datalog option provides the core data collection function.

The purple box identifies the output registers, which update, real-time, after pressing the Read button (see the red box for the location of the Read button).

The yellow box identifies the waveform recorder window. The window contains the gyroscope output.

The purpose of the Register Access window is to provide both read and write access to the user registers in the ADIS1613x. The following picture shows the appearance of this window.

The color coded boxes illustrate the different functions that this window provides.

The purple box identifies the register category. In addition to the Control/Status, this drop-down control offers access to Output and Calibration registers.

The red box identifies all of the registers that are in the current category. Click on the register name to select a register for individual read/write access.

The green box identifies the read/write control options for the current register selection. Use the hexadecimal format when writing commands to a particular register.

The yellow box updates all the registers in the current category.

The Update Flash command saves writable user register data.

The Data Capture function supports synchronous data acquisition, based on the data-ready signal from the ADIS1613x. The following picture represents the Data Capture window, right after opening it from the Main Window and the second picture provides color-coded boxes, in order to support further discussion of each function that is associated with this screen.

The red box identifies all of the registers that are eligible for inclusion in the next acquisition process. Click on each box to include a register in the next data acquisition sequence. The box will have a check mark when it has been selected.

The green box identifies the configuration box for the name and location of the data storage file.

The yellow box identifies a number of configuration options for the data acquisition process. The Samples per File is a user input for the total number of samples in a data record. Note that all selected registers will have this number of samples in the data record file, after the acquisition process completes. After each update to the Record Length box, the software calculates then displays the total Capture Time. The Numeric Data Only…No File Header option allows the user to add or remove the header in the data storage file. The No Scale LSB's Only causes the software to convert the decimal, twos complement number into its representative value. For example, when enabling No Scale LSB's Only, the gyroscope outputs will be in units of degrees/second.
