Chapter 3

Programming and Developing Applications

After following the installation instructions in Chapter 2, your board should now be installed and ready for use.

Programming languages

Measurement Computing’s Universal Library™ provides access to board functions from a variety of Windows

programming languages. If you are planning to write programs, or would like to run the example programs for

Visual Basic



or any other language, please refer to the Universal Library User's Guide (available on our web

site at www.mccdaq.com/PDFmanuals/sm-ul-user-guide.pdf

Packaged applications programs

Many packaged application programs, such as SoftWIRE



and HP-VEE™ now have drivers for your board. If

the package you own does not have drivers for the board, please fax or e-mail the package name and the

revision number from the install disks. We will research the package for you and advise how to obtain drivers.

Some application drivers are included with the Universal Library package, but not with the application package.

If you have purchased an application package directly from the software vendor, you may need to purchase our

Universal Library and drivers. Please contact us by phone, fax or e-mail:

! Phone: 508-946-5100 and follow the instructions for reaching Tech Support.

! Fax: 508-946-9500 to the attention of Tech Support

! Email: techsupport@mccdaq.com

You should use the Universal Library or one of the packaged application programs mentioned above to control

your board. Only experienced programmers should try register-level programming.

If you need to program at the register level in your application, refer to the Register Map for the PCI-DIO24,

PCI-DIO24H, PCI-DIO24/S, and PCI-DIO24/LP. This document is available at
