Programming and software applications

Measurement Computing’s Universal Library™ provides access to board functions from a variety of Windows
programming languages. If you are planning to write programs, or would like to run the example programs for
Visual Basic

or any other language, please refer to the Universal Library User's Guide (available on our web

site at

www.mccdaq.com/PDFmanuals/sm-ul-user-guide.pdf

).

Packaged applications programs

Many packaged application programs, such as SoftWIRE

and HP-VEE™, now have drivers for your board. If

the package you own does not have drivers for your board, please fax or e-mail the package name and the
revision number from the install disks. We will research the package for you and advise how to obtain drivers.

Some application drivers are included with the Universal Library package, but not with the application package.
If you have purchased an application package directly from the software vendor, you may need to purchase our
Universal Library and drivers. Please contact us by phone, fax or e-mail:

Register-level programming

We recommend that you use the Universal Library or one of the packaged application programs mentioned
above for controlling your board. Only experienced programmers should attempt register level-programming.

If you need to program at the register level in your application, refer to the Register Map for the PCI-
CTR20HD
