Installing the software
NOTE
Install the DriverLINX software before installing the KPCI-3101–4
Series board. Otherwise, the device drivers will be more difficult to
install.
Software options
Users of KPCI-3101–4 Series boards have the following two software options. In both cases, the
software interfaces with your system via the DriverLINX software provided with your board:
•
The user can run a fully integrated data-acquisition software package such as TestPoint or
LabVIEW.
•
The user can write and run a custom program in Visual C/C++, Visual Basic, or Delphi,
using the programming support provided in the DriverLINX software.
A summary of the pros and cons of using integrated packages or writing custom programs is
provided in the Keithley Full Line Catalog.
The KPCI-3101–4 Series has fully functional driver support for use under Windows 95/98/NT.

DriverLINX installation process. To display this manual from your
