Configuring DriverLINX
After you have successfully installed the DAS-800 Series board in your
computer, start Windows to install DriverLINX. For detailed instructions
on installing DriverLINX, see the documentation provided on the
DriverLINX CD-ROM; especially the
DriverLINX Installation and
Configuration Guide
and the
Using DriverLINX with Your
Hardware—Keithley DAS-800
manuals
.
Run “Learn DriverLINX” (LearnDL.exe) from the DriverLINX program
group to tell DriverLINX how you configured your DAS-800 Series board
and to verify that everything is properly installed and configured.
1. Start Windows as you normally would and select the Program
Manager window. Install DriverLINX if you have not previously
done so.
2. Either select the “Learn DriverLINX” icon created when you
installed DriverLINX or enter
“<drive>:/DRVLNX/LEARNDL” in the Command Line edit
box activated by selecting from the File menu the Run... option.
<drive> is the letter of the hard disk drive where DriverLINX
is installed.
3. Immediately after loading Learn DL, the Open DriverLINX
DLL dialog box appears. Select the name of the
hardware-specific DLL from the list for your DAS-800 board.
The name is an abbreviation of the board’s model number.
4. From the main menu bar of Learn DL, select the Device menu
and choose Select...
5. Select the Logical Device you wish to configure and then click
on the OK button (return).
6. Again select the Device menu and then choose the Configure...
option to display the Device Configuration Dialog Box.
