After the meter is turned ON, the results can be viewed using the supplied GUI. Connect the RS-232 header on the EVM to the PC using a DB-9 RS-232 serial cable. Open a terminal program to see a report similar to Figure 7-1. The baud rate settings of the UART are user configurable and are set to 115 kbps by default.
This is the active power consumption being displayed approximately every second. When a test signal is connected, a non-zero value is reported.
