Programming and Developing Applications
After following the installation instructions in Chapter 2, your board should now be installed and ready for use.
Although the board is part of the larger DAS family, in general there may be no correspondence among
registers for different boards
correctly with your board.
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 applications programs
Many packaged application programs, such as SoftWIRE
drivers for your board. If the package you own does not have drivers for the 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

Register-level programming
You should use the Universal Library or one of the packaged application programs mentioned above to control
your board. Only experienced programmers should try register-level programming.
If you need to program at the register level in your application, refer to the STC Register Map for the PCI-
DAS6000 Series. This document is available at www.mccdaq.com/registermaps/RegMapSTC6000.pdf.
