HP E1433A User's Guide

Using the HP E1433A

The actual instrument driver itself is a DLL (Dynamic Linked Library) created from:

￿A set of source (.C) files.

￿A set of header (.H) files, used for compiling the file as well as to describe the driver’s calls to any program using the driver.

￿A standard driver library (.LIB) file, to provide the standard functionality all the drivers would require.

This DLL is a set of calls to perform instrument actions — at heart, that’s all a VXIplug&play driver is — a library of instrument calls.

This driver is accessed by Windows applications programs written in languages such as Visual C++ or Visual BASIC, using programming environments such as VEE or NI LabView.

A Windows Help (.HLP) file is included which provides descriptive information and code samples for the functions in the VXIplug&play DLL. This help file can be viewed in the standard Windows Help viewer. A viewer for HP-UX is provided in /opt/hyperhelp - see the READ.ME file.

Manufacturer and model codes

If desired, you can read the manufacturer code, model code and name of the VXI instruments from the file /opt/e1432/lib/vximodel.cf (on unix systems) or :\hpe1432\lib\vximodel.cf (on PC systems).

The following are the Hewlett-Packard VXI models in this file:
