2.1 – CDFC-01 Installation Disk
The CDFC-01 Installation Disk contains documents in Word and PDF format that include individual slot card data
sheets, User’s Manuals, slot card drivers, set-up directories for each slot card user interface and instrument control
software.
2.1.1 Slot Card Drivers
90FC Instrument Driver Directory (Used for Custom Applications)
This directory will install the code and files needed to develop custom applications for each slot card.
2.1.2 Set-Up Directory for Slot Card Interface (Used for Custom GUI Development)
90PF User Interface Directory -
This directory installs the code and files used in developing a custom 90PF
slot card GUI.
2.1.3 Setup Directory for Instrument Control Software
90IP Instrument Control Directory
This directory installs the
LAUNCH SLOT CARD CONTROL
software and the
90IP INSTRUMENT SLOT
CARD CONTROLLER CONFIGURATION
software.
The Slot Card Controller (SCC) is used to read and set the configuration of valid slot cards. The SCC
performs the following functions:
•
Provides communication with the controller interface,
•
Provides slot card access,
•
Provides slot card set-up, and
•
Discontinues slot card operation (Stopping).
It is designed to allow the user to select the slot card configuration through the software front panel. By
setting the values with the soft front panel, the software automatically configures the slot card without the
need to use the 90IP hard front panel instrument controls. For this to occur, the SCC monitors event changes
in each soft panel control and runs various routines accordingly. Multiple slot cards may be arranged to work
simultaneously without affecting each other.
