Configuring GPIO Interfaces
An IO interface can be defined as both a hardware interface and as a
software interface. The purpose of the IO Config utility is to associate a
unique interface name with a hardware interface.
The IO Libraries use an
Interface Name or Logical Unit Number to identify an
interface. This information is passed in the parameter string in the
iopen
function call in a SICL program. IO Config assigns an Interface Name and
Logical Unit Number to the interface hardware, as well as other necessary
configuration values for an interface when the interface is configured.
Using IO Config to
Configure GPIO
Interfaces
To configure GPIO interfaces using the IO Config utility, click the Agilent IO
Libraries Control icon (blue icon on the Windows taskbar) and click Run I
O
Config. When the main screen appears, highlight the
n/a E2075A ISA GPIO
Card
menu item (see the following figure) and click the Configure button.
