RSIB Interface
The RSIB interface is only available if the FSE is equipped with a controller option, FSE-B15. It allows
the control of FSE by Visual C++ and VisualBasic programs but also by using the Windows applications
WinWord and Excel. The functions for the programming of control applications are provided by DLLs
RSIB32.DLL
(for 32-bit applications) and
RSIB.DLL
(for 16-bit applications). Instruments with MS DOS
controller option are restricted to 16-bit applications and local control in a Windows enviroment.
A Unix operating system can be installed on an external computer in addition to a Windows operating
system. In this case, the control applications are created either in C or C++. The supported Unix
operating systems include:
•
Sun Solaris 2.6 Sparc Station
•
Sun Solaris 2.6 Intel Platform
•
Red Hat Linux 6.2 x86 Processors
Control applications may run locally on the measuring instrument as well as on a remote controller in a
network. With local control, the name
’@local’
is specified for link setup by means of function
RSDLLibfind()
. If
’@local’
is not specified, the
RSIB.DLL
interprets the name as an IP address
and attempts to set up a link to the device via the Winsock interface.

Windows Environment
To access the measuring instruments via the RSIB interface the DLL should be installed in the
corresponding directories:
•
RSIB.DLL
in Windows NT
system
directory or control application directory.
•
RSIB32.DLL
in Windows NT
system32
directory or control application directory.
The DLLs are already installed in the corresponding directories on the measuring instruments.
For the different programming languages, files exist containing the declarations for the DLL functions
and the error code definitions.
