Embedded Standard 2009
In order to use the communication card in Windows

XP, a device driver is required. It is
already pre−installed and also included on the "PC based Automation" DVD. For the
implementation of the communication card in your own applications, use "WinSockets",
which are provided by corresponding programming systems. A special library is not
required.

Addressing the communication card from your own applications requires
special programming skills. Lenze does not offer any support regarding this
matter. However, we can refer you to service providers who execute
customised programming and are familiar with Lenze Industrial PCs.
