I have found related issues in the forums but never a complete answer.
I have the ADS1278EVM-PDK and am trying to get everything to work. I have downloaded and installed ADC Pro and updated the plug-in. During the plug-in update I observed that the USB driver was automatically installed. However, when I run ADC Pro and attempt to select the plug-in from the EVM menu, it fails to download properly. The sequence of messages is:
"Locating Binary file"
"Reading binary file"
"USB connection established"
"Firmware downloading"
"Download failed..reset the hardware"
"TIMEOUT"
Even though it says that the connection was established I checked the USB driver to be sure that the device was recognized. Device Manager shows only an Unknown Device. Upon checking the driver details for the Unknown Device I see that the PID of the device is 9001. I searched for and found the USBStyx.inf file to check the PID. The PID in the file is 5718. The VID in the .inf agrees with the device details.
Thus, I can see that the USB driver is not the correct one for the board. How can I get the correct driver?
Thanks for your help.
