JOINING THE
Elite.
Introduction.
____________
This chapter, Joining The Elite, discusses the features of
the Elite card, mentions programs and languages that will drive
the Elite card and explains its how its high specification custom
design whilst retaining exact compatibility with other
manufacturers designs gives it extreme flexibility in its
application and use.
Finally, the perfect companion product for the Elite card,
the Professional 488 Device Driver development environment is
introduced, it is a simple straight forward method for writing
both DOS and Windows programs. Pro-488 is available as a
stand alone product and is especially cost effective when bundled
with an Elite card or sold with a site licence.
An alternative software interface is available for the Elite
cards, our GPIB.COM driver. Our GPIB.COM has the same
calling mechanism and conventions as the widely available NI
product. Use GPIB.COM to maintain backwards compatibility
with existing applications.
