SLWU087E november 2013 – june 2023
If an older version of the GUI has already been installed, make sure to uninstall it before loading a newer version. If the GUI detects that a newer version of the GUI is available online (http://www.ti.com/tool/tsw1400evm), it will assist the user with downloading the latest version from the TI website. The GUI automatically interrogates the product website for latest version every seven days but the latest version check can also be manually invoked through use of the pull-down menu Help->Check for updates.
When new TI HSDC EVMs become available that are not supported with the current GUI software release, the HSDCProv_xpxx_Patch_setup executable, available on the TI website (www.ti.com), will allow the user to add these EVMs to the GUI device list. Doing a search for TSW1400 will direct the user to this location. The user should download this patch . Start the application and follow the on screen instructions. The patch will display the files that will be either added or replaced and have tabs for viewing what files will be deleted and release notes. After running the patch, the user will then be able to start the High Speed Data Converter Pro GUI and notice new parts added to the ADC and DAC device drop down selection box. The patch is always specific to a core GUI version so the patch application would not work for any GUI version that the patch was not explicitly created for.
