6. Program Template for GPIB

/* Filename - gds820ex1.c

* This is an example program written in C. We use a NI's GPIB interface

* card and one X86 PC to control GDS-806/810/820/840. This program could

* get the waveform data from GDS-806/810/820/840, and save them to a file.

* You can use Microsoft Visual C++ or Borland C++ Builder to compile this

* file. And you must link this file with an object file

* (BORLANDC_GPIB-32.OBJ) for Borland C++ or GPIB-32.OBJ for Visual C++ )

* that provided by National Instruments Corporation. DECL-32.H is a

* Win32 C/C++ include file, that contains NI-488.2 function prototypes

* and various pre-defined constants. It's also provided by NI.

* Copyright GOOD WILL INSTRUMENT

#include

* Include the WINDOWS.H and DECL-32.H files. The standard Windows

* header file, WINDOWS.H, contains definitions used by DECL-32.H and

* DECL-32.H contains prototypes for the GPIB routines and constants.
