Using the DAS-1700 Series with
DriverLINX
Introduction
See the Analog I/O
Programming Guide for an
overview of DriverLINX
programming.
This chapter shows you how to set up and use DAS-1700 Series hardware features
with DriverLINX.
The descriptions here use the Edit Service Request dialog for language and API
independence. For the correct syntax with the language you’re using, please see the
DriverLINX Technical Reference Manuals. For DriverLINX examples in your
programming language, please see the source code examples in the subdirectories of
your DriverLINX installation directory or on the original distribution media.
DriverLINX Hardware Model for DAS-1700 Series
DriverLINX provides a portable, hardware-independent API for data-acquisition
boards while still allowing applications to access unique or proprietary hardware
features of specific products. To achieve this goal, DriverLINX maps a hardware-
independent, or abstract, data-acquisition model onto DAS-1700 Series hardware
capabilities.
The following sections describe how DriverLINX implements DAS-1700 Series
hardware features as Subsystems, Modes, Operations, Events, Logical Channels,
Buffers, and Messages.
DriverLINX Subsystems
The DAS-1700 Series supports the following DriverLINX subsystems:
1.
Device—refers to a DAS-1700 board as a whole.
2.
Analog Input—refers to the analog input channels, clocks, and control
signals.
3.
Analog Output—refers to the analog output channels, clocks, and
control signals. DA and AO models only.
