The DAP box is a special black box which offers an individual
user interface to the processing functions of the DAP driver. If
the DAP hardware driver from Microstar Laboratories is
installed on your computer, you can select Inputs/Outputs»
DAP»DAP Box»New on the Modules tab of the browser and drag and drop
a DAP box into the worksheet. You can use one DAP Box in the worksheet
for each installed DAP board.
In DAP boxes you create a worksheet solely with DAP modules. The DAP
board and not the computer processes the functions and data used in the DAP
box. Therefore you cannot use any other DASYLab modules in a DAP Box.
You establish a connection between the DAP board and the computer, that is,
between the DAP Box and the DASYLab worksheet via DAP export/import
modules.
You cannot use a DAP box or a black box to nest DAP boxes. Unlike a black
box you only can save a DAP box with the worksheet and cannot export it.
