Programming and software applications
Programming languages
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 application programs
Many packaged application programs, such as SoftWIRE  , Labtech Notebook™, 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:
ƒ Phone: 508-946-5100 and follow the instructions for reaching Tech Support.
ƒ Fax: 508-946-9500 to the attention of Tech Support
ƒ Email: [email protected]
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 must use register-level programming in your application, refer to the Register Map for the PCI-
CTR05. This document is available on our web site at
