RIVER AND IRMWARE
The instrument driver and firmware have three revision fields: <Major>, <Minor>, and <Build>.
For the firmware installed on the instrument to be compatible with the driver being used, the
<Major> version number must be equal and the <Minor> version must be equal or newer than the
driver. Otherwise, the firmware needs to be updated. It is recommended to use the same <Major>
and <Minor> version pair, if possible.
D API I
RIVER AND NSTRUMENTS
The Digitizer driver is designed to work with many digitizer products from VTI Instruments. Not
all API functions defined in the driver apply to every digitizer product, since each model has a
unique feature set. Calling unsupported API functions will result in a property not supported or
method not supported error. See the manuals for the other digitizer products for more details on their
supported features.
