Software Installation

Download the latest version of the EVM GUI installer from the AFE10004 secure resources folder on TI.com. Run the installer to install the software, and copy the required LabVIEW™ software files and drivers to the PC.

When the AFE10004EVM GUI installer launches, an dialog window appears to select an installation directory. If left unchanged, the software location defaults to C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\AFE10004EVM-FTDI-GUI. Figure 3-1 shows the default path.

The EVM software also installs the Future Technology Devices International Limited (FTDI) USB drivers using a separate executable file. Figure 3-2 shows the FTDI USB drivers installation window that launches after the AFE10004EVM software installation completes.
