Call the InitializeSystem() method to initialize the system at the specified

Connecting to the Board
To connect to the board, you must know three parameters:
• Connection Type (yConnectionType): Connection type can be either USB or TCP. The
values for this parameter can be specified using pre-defined constants
(APIHeader.h), such as CEI_CONNECTION_USB or CEI_CONNECTION_TCP.
• Device Id (vDeviceId): Device Identification Number of the Board found on the label
of the Teledyne LeCroy hardware. This parameter is Variant, and so it needs a
conversion from string form of Device Id to Variant. This conversion can be done
using:
AfxConvertStringArrayToVariant (&vDeviceId,
astrDeviceId);
