Driver Software

A LabWindows IVI DMM driver is provided for the DMM functions on the card. All other
functions are controlled using specific extensions of the driver. The driver is part of the
ROHDE & SCHWARZ GTSL software. All the functions of the driver are described fully
in the on-line help and in the LabWindows CVI Function Panels.

During driver installation, the following software modules are installed:

A soft panel R&S TS-PSAM is provided for the module. The soft panel is based on the
LabWindows CVI driver. It enables the measurement module to be operated interac-
tively. The measurement values are output in digital or graphical format (Multipoint
Measurements).
