Introduction
The Conquest™ Application Program Interface (API) is a collection (library) of COM objects.
The API enables programmers to use most of the Conquest Suite software functionality in
their programs for the hardware, to execute a specific project with an event sequence and
program selections. The software is for use with applications developed under
COM Supported Platforms such as Microsoft
®
Visual C++™, Borland
®
Delphi™, and
Microsoft Visual Basic™.
Using the Library
To use the library:
1. Copy the Conquest SystemData folder into the system32 folder of the
Windows directory of the PC.
2. Import usb.tlb into your software project.
3. Create a dispatch USBGeneralServices interface. See page 2.
4. Create a dispatch USBEasyDataCapturePrj interface. See page 5.
5. Use the API functions for required settings.
Note: You must run the Conquest Suite software before using the API.
Object Hierarchy
Objects are organized in a hierarchy of interfaces, with a set of methods for each.
