I believe the EVM clock parameter range should be 2.5Hz to 40KHz for ADS125H02 but perhaps I don't understand the purpose of the parameter.
Also wanted to note that the automatic driver install for Delta Sigma Eval Software 0.7.8.13 did not work on my Win10 machine. Manual install required.
Hi DHaas59,
The "Clock (Hz)" parameter in the Analysis Engine currently doesn't affect anything in the analysis results. It is there to tell the GUI how to scale the data rate, in case you were use an external clock source that was different from the nominal 7.3728 MHz or 10.24 MHz (40 kSPS only) internal oscillator.
The intent was for determining the sampling frequency when performing an FFT calculation, but the GUI currently doesn't do this analysis.
Thanks for letting us know about the automatic driver installation issue!
If you'd be willing to share the installation log file located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Texas Instruments\DSEvalSW\DSEvalSW-installLog.log with me, I'd greatly appreciate the additional information to try to troubleshoot that issue. Thank you!
Install log file attached. I did a quick look. I do think the hardware was connected during the driver install but don't really remember. I'm pretty sure I had attached the hardware prior to the TI driver install so another driver was associated with the hardware prior to the TI install. Hope that didn't screw it up.
A couple nit picking items (I really find this util handy for eval purposes but I'm always greedy for more):
1. Disabling CRC in analysis window gets overwritten if I access register back in main window. The two CRC locations fight with each other.
2. It would be nice if PGA setting were recorded in data file save.
3. It would be nice if data file save options were saved to an options file so they did not require setting on each launch.
Thanks for the handy tool.

USB Driver installer quit unexpectedly. This could be because the driver is already installed, hardware was connected during the installation, or other reasons. Manual driver installation may be required. See user guide for more details on verification and manual installation process.

Hi Dan,
Thank you for the log file and for the additional UI feedback! We definitely want to improve on our EVM software and I will see that your inputs are taken into consideration for the next revision.
From the log file, I'm guessing that the problem was that the driver installer file was extracted to a Windows UAC enabled folder (e.g. "Program Files (x86)\"). Had the driver installer been extracted to a temporary folder without UAC restrictions then it would have automatically installed. Thanks again for bring this to my attention!
