ADDIPACK is composed of following programs:
ADDIREG: The ADDIREG registration program is a 32-bit program for
Windows NT 4.0 and Windows XP/2000/98. The user can register all hardware
information necessary to operate the ADDI-DATA PC boards.
ADDIDRIVER contains API functions to operate the "universal ADDI-DATA
boards" in 32-bits.
ADDevice Manager configures the resources of the ADDI-DATA virtual board
(see below).
ADDI-DATA virtual board:
ADDI-DATA software is based on the principle of a virtual board: It
transposes the different functions (e.g. analog inputs, digital outputs, timer,
etc.) of all inserted ADDI-DATA boards as the functions of a single (virtual)
board. The virtual board features a pool of functions, the functionality of which
can be called up without calling a specific board.
ADDEVICE MAPPER was specifically developed for the ADDIPACK boards
to facilitate the management of the virtual board. With this program you can
optimally adapt the virtual board to your application requirements.
IMPORTANT!
For some functions of the ADDEVICE MAPPER program the browser
Internet Explorer 6 or higher has to be installed on your PC.
