1.5 Software Overview
Advantech offers a comprehensive set of DLL drivers and third-party driver support
and application software to fully exploit the functions of PCI-1758 series cards. These
include

DAQNavi software

LabView driver

Advantech DAQ tools
Programming DA&C Cards
Advantech application software, such as Advantech DAQNavi software can be used
for programming PCI-1758 series cards. Advanced users can conduct register-level
programming, although this is not recommended due to its laborious and time-con -
suming nature.
DAQNavi Software
Advantech DAQNavi software includes device drivers and an SDK that features a
complete I/O function library to enhance application performance. This software can
be downloaded from the Advantech Support Portal (http://support.advantech.com/
support/new_default.aspx). Simply search “DAQNavi” to navigate to the download
page. The Advantech DAQNavi software for Windows 7/10 works seamlessly with a
range of development tools, including Visual Studio.Net, Visual C++, Visual Basic,
and Borland Delphi.
Register-Level Programming
Register-level programming is available for experienced programmers wishing to
write code directly at the device register level. Because register-level programming
requires substantial time and effort, we recommend that you use the Advantech
DAQNavi software instead. However, if register-level programming is unavoidable,
contact the technical support team to obtain any information that may be required.
1.6 DAQNavi Device Driver Programming Roadmap
This section provides a roadmap for building an application from the ground up using
Advantech DAQNavi device drivers combined with your preferred development tools,
such as Visual Studio.Net, Visual C++, Visual Basic, and Borland Delphi. Additionally,
step-by-step instructions for building unique applications using each development
tool are included in the DAQNavi SDK manual. A comprehensive set of example
source codes is also provided for reference.
1.6.1 Programming Tools
Programmers can develop application programs using their preferred development
tools. For example,

Visual Studio.Net

Visual C++ and Visual Basic

Borland Delphi
The DAQNavi SDK manual can be downloaded from the Advantech website. Alterna-
tively, if the device drivers are already installed on the computer, the DAQNavi SDK
manual can be accessed via the Start button.
