Programming
- The driver software provided with the board uses a 32-bit .dll front end compatible with any Windows programming language. Samples provided in Borland C++Builder, Borland Delphi, Microsoft Visual Basic, and Microsoft Visual C++ demonstrate the use of the driver.
- The easiest way to begin taking analog input data is using the following API call, but often can’t achieve more than several hundred Hz, slower depending on options. unsigned long ADC_GetScanV( – This simple function takes one scan of A/D data and converts it to voltage. It also averages oversamples for each channel. The array must contain one entry per A/D channel on the board, though only entries [start channel] through [end channel] are altered. On boards with A/D that don’t support ADC_SetConfig(), it scans all channels, without oversampling.
- unsigned long DeviceIndex – number from 0-31 indicating from which device you wish to get a scan of data double *pBuf – a pointer to the first of an array of double precision IEEE floating point numbers which will each receive the value read from one channel )
- For full programming details see the USB Software Reference Manual installed on your system along with the product software package.
Connector Pin Assignments
The DAQ-PACK M Series is available in five basic flavors, always consisting of the USB interface and A/D board and one AIMUX-64 multiplexer board. The A/D board may also have two 16-bit analog outputs (specify at time of ordering). Signals present on these connectors are as follows:
| Connector | Type | Description |
