Programming the Board

This section contains information about how to program the GX3348 using the GXPDO driver. The driver contains functions to initialize, reset, and control the PXI board. This chapter includes a brief description of the functions, as well as how and when to use them, with code examples. Section Function Reference contains a complete and detailed description of the available programming functions.

The driver supports many development tools. This section describes using these tools with the driver. The GXPDO installation directory contains examples written for these development tools. Chapter 3 lists the available examples.

An example using the DLL driver with Microsoft Visual C++  is at the end of this section: Programming the Board. The driver functions and parameters are identical for all operating systems and development tools, and this example serves as a guide for use other programming languages.
