what dll do I use and where are the .h include files?

[adam_edgar]

I recently downloaded the wavetek 271 drivers and have found that when imported (Lab View 6.0) that they need to be linked to a dll. But which one? And the includes call for the glib.h and other libraries where are they at. Are they compressed?
thanks

Hello-

There are two versions of this driver one for LabVIEW (NI's graphical language) and one for LabWindows-CVI (NI's text-based language). Be sure to download the proper type of driver.


In LabVIEW, the driver should be placed in LabVIEW\instr.lib.


In LabWindows-CVI, it's necessary to Load the driver from the Instrument>>Load... menu. The files should be placed in cvi\instr.
