SeaMAX Application Suite
SeaMAX Overview
The SeaMAX Suite is a collection of configuration/diagnostic utilities and software libraries that enable
rapid application development. The SeaMAX API, included in the SeaMAX Suite, provides a common API
for Sealevel SeaConnect, SeaI/O, eI/O and SeaDAC data acquisition modules. SeaMAX is designed to
simplify application development by requiring little knowledge of the underlying communication protocols
of these devices and replacing low-level programming. SeaMAX is available in an unmanaged library and a
wrapper library that provides an interface to the API from managed code.
The following libraries and utilities are included in the SeaMAX Suite:
1. MaxSSD Configuration & Diagnostics utility
2. Ethernet Configuration utility
3. SeaMAX API
4. SeaMAX .NET API
The SeaMAX API documentation, installed with SeaMAX, explains the usage and API references, including
function calls and enumerations. Sealevel digital and analog I/O modules supported by SeaMAX software
are designed to work with third party applications via the SeaMAX API. To help simplify application
development, the complete API documentation and code samples are automatically installed with the
SeaMAX Suite and can be found in Windows by clicking Start

Communicating Via Modbus
When enabled, Sealevel SeaConnect modules are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing Modbus
networks (See Configuration -> Optional Features). The supported command set will vary depending on the
SeaConnect model number used. An overview of the Modbus specification is covered in detail in the
interactive documentation included in the SeaMAX installation.
The official Modbus specification can be found at http://www.modbus.org .
