Introduction

The Driver488/W31 software disk includes two utility programs:

WINTEST

and

QUIKTEST

. These

programs were designed as an exercise for the user and to verify proper installation of the driver.

WINTEST

uses the Driver488/W31 C syntax while

QUIKTEST

uses Visual Basic. This Sub-Chapter

describes each utility in detail.

WINTEST

WINTEST

is a utility program included with Driver488/W31. Its primary application is to exercise the

driver and instruments on the bus via Driver488/W31 commands, which are accessible from the menu
bar. Since the lines of code that are generated and executed by

WINTEST

use the Driver488/W31 C

language syntax,

WINTEST

is most useful for C programmers.
