After installing the Orbit Support Pack for Windows
®
the following components will have been loaded on the computer.
A dynamic link library (Orbit_IF.dll) that provides the interface between a 32 bit application and the Orbit Network via
a Solartron Orbit PCI Network Card, Orbit ISA Network Card and the RS232 Interface Module. The DLL supports
most of the popular computer programming languages.
The Orbit Network Registration program (OrbitRegistration.exe) which allows you to register your Orbit Controller
hardware (RS232 Interface Module or Orbit ISA Network Card). The Orbit Network Registration program does not
have to be run when using the Orbit PCI Network card. This program is activated using the Start menu at any time.
Orbit Network Explorer (OrbitExplorer.exe). This is a simple application program that allows the user to test each of
the Orbit commands with a network of probes and to observe how the probes respond to these commands. You can
also use this application to give you confidence that your Orbit system is operating correctly.
The Orbit COM Library, which gives a language independent interface to the Orbit Measurement System. See the
Orbit COM Library Programmers Guide for further information
