calibration toolkit

library. This provides the functionality
for calibrating your device.

vxipnp\winnt(win95)\lib\msc\niArbCal.lib

This is a .

lib

file that allows you

to create applications which call
functions in the

niArbCal

DLL. You

must link to this library when building
applications in Microsoft Visual C++
or National Instruments CVI.

vxipnp\winnt(win95)\include\niArbCal.h

This is a header file for the accessible
functions in the

niArbCal

DLL.

You must include this file in any
C code that you write in order to call
these functions.

SimpleCalibrationExample.c

vxipnp\winnt(win95)\

ExternalCalibrationExample.c

These are examples, written in C,
that illustrate the use of the functions
in the

niArbCal

DLL to accomplish

calibration related tasks.
