General considerations
The EVM software running on a PC host, communicates with the device and provides access to its
internal registers. First, the host checks if the USB-To-GPIO firmware version is up to date. If it is not,
please download and update to the latest version. Note that after updating the firmware, the USB must be
disconnected and reconnected. The same process applies to the EVM software.

menu permits switching from one to the other. In both interfaces, special care is taken to warn the user in
case of hardware power or connection problems via indicators at the bottom of the window.
