4.1.1

Device Sub-panel

The Device sub-panel configures the CapturePlus II system to capture data from the evaluation board.
This sub-panel is always available.

Sub-panel Descriptions:

Pull-down menu: The pull-down menu selects the Cirrus Logic evaluation board and associated

device. In most cases, the software will read the evaluation board EEPROM and automatically
select the appropriate menu item.

Load Config: Loads the ADC internal register configuration file. Information in the configuration

file can be used to configure ADC internal registers. However, this function is not supported for all
Cirrus Logic ADCs.

Save Config: Saves the ADC internal register configuration file. The software makes a copy of the

ADC internal register configuration and saves it in the configuration file.

4.1.2

Acquire Sub-panel

The Acquire sub-panel configures the software parameters for acquiring data sets from the evaluation
board. This sub-panel is always available. Click on the Acquire button to open this sub-panel.

Sub-panel Descriptions:

Number of Samples to Capture: Selects number of data samples to acquire. Note: Capturing

data sets is PC memory intensive. The PC requires sufficient memory to run the PC operating
system, CapturePlus II software, and to store captured data sets. Insufficient memory may limit the
ability to acquire larger data sets. A minimum of 1 gigabyte of RAM is recommended.

Data Format: Displays the format of the data samples being acquired. The software automatically

fills in the Data Format window based upon the evaluation board part number displayed in the
Device sub-panel. Change the data format between Bipolar and Unipolar by activating the adjacent
Up/Down buttons.
