ADS127L11EVM-PDK: GUI Source Code

Jejomar Ildefonso

Part Number: ADS127L11EVM-PDK

Hi Team,

We've noticed that the GUI for ADS127L11EVM-PDK uses the LabView Runtime Engine. Would it be possible to request for its source code?

Our customer intends to use the EVM as a data acquisition device. They'd like to request for the GUI source code or a LabVIEW VI to be used in obtaining and processing the captured data from the ADC.

Thanks in advance!


Kind Regards,

Jejomar

    Hello Jejomar,

    The source code is not available for the GUI.  Unfortunately, we do not have a standard set of VI's with documentation that can be used to create a custom version of the GUI.

    We do have example C code that is available for download on the product folder page.

    Hello Keith,

    Many thanks for looking into this. Just a follow-up query, our customer raised an issue with the GUI particularly on the “Log to bin file” option. It seems that it does not do anything. Should that not create a .bin file with the captured data?


    Kind Regards,

    Jejomar

    Hello Jejomar,

    We do not have this feature implemented on the ADS127L11EVM GUI.  The option should have been removed from the Tools menu.

    However, you can export data from a single data set (up to 1 million samples) to either the clipboard or Excel by right-clicking on the time domain data results and selecting Export.

    Regards,
    Keith

    Hi Keith,

    We've shared these information to the customer and it seems that the has further concerns. His response is as follows:

    "I have three concerns about your response:
    1. The export data feature for the time domain graph will not export more than 65,536 points. Far fewer than the 1 million you've mentioned.
    2. Data can not be exported to Excel as that option is greyed out in the pop up menu.
    3. Why include a feature in a menu (Log to bin file) that is not implemented?

    My issue will be resolved when I can export the entire time domain graph or when you implement the Log to bin file feature."


    Kind Regards,

    Jejomar

    Hello Jejomar,

    1. The export data to Excel will support 1 million samples.  This number is limited by Excel, not the ADS127L11EVM GUI.  You can also export to the clipboard, but this is limited by the operating system and available memory.  64k samples is supported on all WIN10 PC's that I have tested.  I have also been able to export up to 256k samples to the clipboard on a WIN10 PC with 16G of available RAM.

    2. You must have Excel installed on your PC in order to export to Excel.  The GUI does not directly save to a file, and Excel must be installed to use this feature.  If not installed, then this option will be greyed out.

    3. The software was developed from another product that included the 'Log to bin file' function.  This is something that was overlooked, and should have either been removed from the menu option or the feature should have been included.  We do not have a timeline for the next version of the GUI, but this issue will be addressed on the next version of software.

    Regards,
    Keith
