Two software configuration programs are provided with the DAQP card: a Client Driver named DAQPA_CL.SYS and a card Enabler named DAQPA_EN.EXE. Either one of these programs may be used to configure the card but only one may be used at a time. Table 2-1 below highlights the differences between the Client Driver and the Enabler programs. Detailed instructions for installation and usage of the Client Driver and Enabler programs are discussed the following sections.
