EVISIONS
The instrument driver and firmware have three revision fields: <Major>, <Minor>, and <Build>.
For the firmware installed on the instrument to be compatible with the driver being used, the
<Major> version number must be equal and the <Minor> version must be equal or newer than the
driver. Otherwise, the firmware needs to be updated. It is recommended to use the same <Major>
and <Minor> version pair, if possible.

API
AND

NSTRUMENTS
Digitizer/DSA drivers are designed to work with many digitizer cards from VTI. Not all API
functions defined in the driver applies to every card since each models is unique in the feature set.
Calling unsupported API functions will result in an
unsupported
error.
