4.1 Home

The Home page is the GUI start-up landing page. The Home page provides a high-level overview of the ADS1x48 including a device description and a 3D view of the EVM PCB. Highlighted in orange in the upper-left corner of Figure 4-2 is a vertical Navigation bar for the various GUI pages, including:

  • Home
  • Data Capture
  • Register Map

The horizontal Menu bar at the top of the GUI shows the following menu options, which are highlighted in blue in Figure 4-2 and are discussed in more detail in Section 4.1.1:

  • File
  • Options
  • Tools
  • Help

Quick links to Support Resources are shown at the bottom of the Home page. These links are highlighted in purple in Figure 4-2 and include the EVM user's guide, schematic, and ADC data sheet. Finally, a successfully connected EVM displays as Device Connected in the top left and as Hardware Connected in the status ribbon. Both of these indicators are highlighted in green in Figure 4-2.
