Overview
TestPoint includes features for controlling external devices, responding to
events, processing data, creating report files, and exchanging information
with other Windows programs. It provides libraries for controlling most
popular GPIB instruments. OCX and ActiveX controls plug directly into
TestPoint, allowing additional features from third party suppliers.
LabVIEW
LabVIEW is a fully featured, graphical programming language used to
create virtual instrumentation. It consists of an interactive user interface,
complete with knobs, slides, switches, graphs, strip charts, and other
instrument panel controls. Its data driven environment uses function
blocks that are virtually wired together and pass data to each other. The
function blocks, which are selected from palette menus, range from
arithmetic functions to advanced acquisition, control, and analysis
routines. Also included are debugging tools, help windows, execution
highlighting, single stepping, probes, and breakpoints to trace and
monitor the data flow execution. LabVIEW can be used to create
professional applications with minimal programming.
Accessories
The following accessories are available for the DAS-TC/B:
●
STC-TC/B
— a panel containing a CJC sensor and screw terminals
for all DAS-TC/B I/O connections. The STC-TC/B plugs directly into
the main I/O connector of the DAS-TC/B and extends from the rear
of the computer.
●
STA-TC/B
— contains a CJC sensor and screw terminals for all
DAS-TC/B I/O connections. Use a C-1800 cable to connect the
STA-TC/B to the DAS-TC/B.
●
C-1800
— an 18-inch ribbon cable for connecting the STA-TC/B to
the DAS-TC/B. This cable is available in longer lengths that must be
specified in the part number (for example, to specify three extra feet
use C-1803).
●
S-1800
— a shielded version of the C-1800 cable.
