System requirements
The system capabilities required to run the KPCI-3101–4 Series board, and to use the Driver-
LINX software supplied with the board, are listed in
Software
The user can select a fully integrated data acquisition software package such as TestPoint or
LabVIEW or write a custom program supported by DriverLINX.
DriverLINX is the basic Application Programming Interface (API) for the KPCI-3101–4 Series
boards:
•
It supports programmers who wish to create custom applications using Visual C/C++, Visual
Basic, or Delphi.
•
It accomplishes foreground and background tasks to perform data acquisition.
•
It is the needed interface between TestPoint and LabVIEW and a KPCI-3101–4 Series board.
DriverLINX software and user’s documentation on a CD-ROM are included with your board.
TestPoint is an optional, fully featured, integrated application package with a graphical drag-
and-drop interface which can be used to create data acquisition applications without
programming.
LabVIEW is an optional, fully featured graphical programming language used to create virtual
instrumentation.
