Software Utilities
Advantech offers device drivers, SDKs, third-party driver support and application
software to help fully exploit the functions of your iDAQ system. All these software
packages are available on Advantech website: http://www.advantech.com/.
The Advantech Navigator is a utility that allows you to set up, configure and test your
device, and later stores your settings in a proprietary database.
1.
To set up the I/O device for your card, you could first run the Advantech Naviga-
tor program (by accessing Start/Programs/Advantech Automation/DAQNavi/
Advantech Navigator). The settings could also be saved.
2.
You can then view the device(s) already installed on your system (if any) on the
Installed Device tree view. If the software and hardware installation are com-
pleted, you will see iDAQ modules in the Installed Devices list.

Software Development Using DAQNavi SDK
DAQNavi SDK is the software development kit for programming applications with
Advantech DAQ products. The necessary runtime DLL, header files, software man-
ual and tutorial videos can be installed via XNavi installer. They can be found under
C:\Advantech\DAQNavi (default directory) after the finishing the installation.

Application Software DAQNavi MCM
DAQNavi MCM is an application software focusing on high-speed data acquisition,
data monitoring and network access. It provides a graphical interface for users to
achieve DAQ configuration, data pre-processing, feature extraction, user-defined for-
mula calculation and the output settings to upload data. All settings can also be
saved to a project file for further parameter management. On top of that, the datalog-
ging function is also available in DAQNavi/MCM. All data can be saved not only on
local storage, but also in remote storage.
By introducing the DAQNavi/MCM, the DAQ system could become an IoT-solution-
ready edge device. For more information, please search for DAQNavi/MCM on the
Advantech Support Portal (https://www.advantech.com/support).

FPGA Code Download
The FPGA can also be updated via the interface in Navigator. However, it isn't the
normal situation to move onto the FPGA update. Advantech strongly suggests you to
consult your technical support before starting an FPGA update.
