Status Messages upon Loading Software
Once the AD9958 evaluation software has been loaded, a green
splash screen appears as shown in Figure 14. The status box
within the splash screen gives the status of the AD9958
evaluation software. A cursor is provided for easy navigation
throughout this box. Green writing in the status box indicates
that the software has loaded successfully.
A splash screen with red writing in the status box indicates that
the software did not load successfully and that an error occurred
(see Figure 15). Scrolling up through the status box with the
cursor indicates why the software did not load correctly.

Most status message errors can be resolved by checking jumper
settings, making sure that the evaluation board is powered up
correctly, and inspecting the USB port and cable connections.
When all power connections, USB port/cable connections, and
jumper settings are correct, an error can still appear if the clock
input is not properly configured. If this occurs, a pop-up
window appears in the center of the splash screen explaining
that the software does not recognize the REF_CLK input.
Follow the directions given (see Figure 16).
