LabWindows CVI/ (R) 4.0 (or higher)

The Agilent 816x VXIplug&play Instrument Driver is supplied as a
Dynamic Link Library (.DLL) file.
There are several advantages to using the .DLL form of the driver,
including those listed below:
• transportability across different computer platforms,
• a higher level of support for the compiled driver from Agilent
Technologies,
• a faster load time for your project.
LabWindows/CVI (R) will attempt by default to load the source version
of the instrument driver. To load the DLL, you must include the file
hp816x.fp in your project. hp816x.fp can be found in the directory
vxipnp\win95\hp816x.
Do not include hp816x.C in your project.
You must provide an include file for hp816x.H. You do this by ensuring
that the directory ~vxipnp\win95\include is added to the include
paths (CVI Project Option menu).
~ is the directory in the VXIPNP variable. By default, ~ is equivalent to
C:\. This means that the file is in C:\vxipnp\win95\include.
