C.1 Overview

The PCI-1710/1710L/1710HG/1710HGL/1711/1711L/1716/1716L is
delivered with an easy-to-use 32-bit DLL driver for user programming
under the Windows 95/98/NT/2000 operating system. We advise users
to program the PCI-1710/1710L/1710HG/1710HGL/1711/1711L/1716/
1716L using the 32-bit DLL driver provided by Advantech to avoid the
complexity of low-level programming by register.

The most important consideration in programming the PCI-1710/1710L/
1710HG/1710HGL/1711/1711L/1716/1716L at the register level is to
understand the function of the card’s registers. The information in the
following sections is provided only for users who would like to do
their own low-level programming.
