Programming
For programming the device please use the Meilhaus Electronic In-
telligent Driver System (ME-iDS) included in your package. The ME-
iDS is a unique driver system covering different devices and operat-
ing systems. It supports Windows 2000 and higher and contains a
universal function library (API) for all common programming lan-
guages (the extent of the current software support can be found in
the README-files of the ME-iDS).
A detailed description of the functions can be found in the ME-iDS
manual (see CD/DVD enclosed or online:
www.meilhaus.de/download/ME-iDS.
Further details regarding the assignment of the subdevices and de-
vice specific arguments can be found in the help file (help file format
under Windows, *.chm) which can be accessed via the „ME-iDS
Control Center“ in the info area of the task bar (as a rule in the
lower right corner of the screen) or via the Windows start menu.
If you do not want to program your board with the ME-iDS but with
the legacy driver you can find the last revision of the old function
reference in the ME-6x00 manual Rev. 3.0 (see:
). Please note that we cannot support
this driver anymore.
