HP E1433A User's Guide
Getting Started With the HP E1433A
C-Language Host Interface Library example programs
The HP E1432A
The files in the examples directory are:
Makefile | A unix Makefile which can be used to compile all of the programs in the examples |
| directory. |
README | A file containing the information given here. |
detect.c | Shows how to use SICL calls to find the logical addresses of the HP E1433A modules |
| in a system. |
example.c | Shows the basics of setting up an E1433A, starting a measurement, and reading a |
| block of data. |
intr.c | Shows how to set up SICL and an HP E1433A to use interrupts for data collection. |
src_intr.c | Shows how to set up SICL and an HP E1433A to use interrupts with a 1D4 Source |
| board, for overload shutdown and overread. |
tachmon.c | Shows how to monitor a tach channel signal using the other inputs in the HP E1433A |
| module. |
throughput | A directory containing example programs for throughput to and |
| an HP E1562A disk module. |
Demo Programs
In addition to example programs, the HP E1432A Host Interface library also comes with demo programs. These programs are found in the “/opt/e1432/demo” directory.
One of these demo programs, called “semascope”, demonstrates that the HP E1433A hardware and software are working properly. When run, it identifies the HP E1433A modules in the VXI system, runs a measurement using the HP E1433A modules that it finds, and plots the results in X11 windows. This program is not meant to be an example of how to use the HP E1432A library, although we do provide the source code.
Other demo programs include “rpmtrig” and “rpmtrig2” and “semascope3.”
