VXI-AT2022/NI-VXI SCO UNIX Getting Started

•

sysint.h

 contains parameter and return values for the system interrupt functions.

•

trig.h

 contains parameter and return values for the trigger functions.

•

ws.h

 contains parameter and return values for the Commander and Servant Word Serial

functions.

The 

/hlp

 directory contains the various help (

.hlp

) files used by 

victext

 and  

vxitedit

.

The 

/example

 directory contains example programs showing you how to use the NI-VXI

software.

Installing the Software

This section describes how to install the NI-VXI software.

Step 1.  Set Up a Working Directory

1. Log on as root.

2. Create a working directory (for example, 

/usr/nivxi

) and change to that directory.

cd /usr
mkdir nivxi
cd nivxi

3. Copy the files from the NI-VXI distribution diskette to this directory using the 

tar

 command.

For a 3.5 in. floppy diskette (in drive 0):

tar -xvf /dev/fd0135ds18

For a 5.25 in. floppy diskette (in drive 0):

tar -xvf /dev/fd096ds15

Step 2.  Install the Driver into the System

Follow these steps to install the NI-VXI driver.

1.

Log on as root.

2.

Change to your working directory.

3.

Run the script 

./vxiinstall

 to install the driver into the kernel.

4.

The script program prompts you to verify that you have logged on with super user privileges.
If this is not the case, quit the program and restart after logging in as root.
