The ADS5282EVM User's Guide (attached) explains how to use the software.

Conversely, users can by using a text editor easily create a script file containing all ADC register writes.
An example script file is located in the \\Install Directory\ADC SPI Control\Script
Files\ADS5281_Init.reg_ADS528X. Users who wish to take advantage of writing their own script files
should start by using the ADS5281_Init.reg_ADS528X as a template file. When editing script files
manually, make sure there is no carriage return following the last register write.

What is the manual referring to here.... Is there any what for me to get access to the scripts

Chinedum,

This GUI was created over 10 years ago and anyone who worked on it are long gone. If you open the GUI and click on a few options, you will notice in the history window, register address and data information will be reported. You then can click on "Save Script" to create a script file, which I have attached. As far as the script files called out in the User's Guide go, these are unavailable.

Regards,

Jim
