USB port of the PC to ensure that the SDP-B board is recognized
when it is connected to the PC.

After installation is completed, power up the evaluation
board as described in the Power Supplies section.

Connect the EVAL-AD5243SDZ into the SDP-B board and
the SDP-B board into the PC using the USB cable included
in the evaluation kit.
5.
When the software detects the evaluation board, follow the
instructions that appear to finalize the installation.
