WARNING: VIDAR has validated the STI driver and
replacement of vscsi32.dll with all supported VIDAR digitizers
on both Windows™ 2000 and Windows™ XP systems using
several third party software applications. No bugs or problems
were identified during validation testing. However, you must
check with your system integrator or scanning software vendor
to verify that they support the replacement of VIDAR’s
vscsi32.dll .
About the STI drivers
Previously, most system integrators built their scanning applications for
VIDAR digitizers based on either the VIDAR SCSI Toolkit or the
ActiveX control (based on the SCSI Toolkit). VIDAR’s SCSI Toolkit
was based on Adaptec’s ASPI drivers. However, Adaptec™ is not
supporting its ASPI drivers for Microsoft Windows™ 2000 or XP.
Therefore, VIDAR developed a toolkit that takes advantage of
Microsoft’s Still Image Architecture (STI) for digital imaging devices.
The new VIDAR Toolkit and VIDAR STI driver support several
operating system enhancements.
