QUICK START PROCEDURE
The System Tree on the left hand side should turn all green. All 8 green LEDs on the DC1361A should illuminate.
11. You are now ready to execute one of the LTC2978 demos embedded in the GUI or experiment with the part.
LOADING A CONFIGURATION (*.proj) FILE WITH THE GUI
1. In the upper left hand corner of the GUI, File > Open > browse to your *.proj fi le. This will load the fi le into the GUI.
