Forum Post: ADS8638 communication issue

$

Hi

I have a custom made board with several ADS8638 on it and they are supplied like this: 

I communicate with the ADC with LabVIEW and a NI 8451 (USB SPI device) and I have attached a screenshot of the communication when I try to set ch6-7 range and then try to read ch6-7 range. My CLK runs at 50kHz

As I read the manual, to set ch6 range to +/-5V and ch7 range to +/-5V I need to send the following bits to the ADC:  

Set ch6-7 range:  00100110 00100010

read ch6-7 range:  00100111 00000000

Screenshot of setting the range:

Screenshot of reading the range:

Yellow = Chip select

Green = Clock

Blue = DIN (MOSI)

Purple = DOUT (MISO)

I am clearly not reading the contents of register 13h that contain ch6-7 ranges.... I have tried to tie AL_PD to 3,3V to make sure the ADC is not in a sleep state. It makes no difference

Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?
