PC Plug-in Boards with I/O Library
I/O libraries, usually shipped as Dynamically Linked
Libraries (or DLLs) for PC Plug- in boards, are supplied by
the vendor of the PC Plug- in board. VEE enables you to
control the PC Plug- in board by calling library functions
with the Call object. Figure 80 shows an example of the
Import Library object that makes the functions available in
VEE.

VXIplug&play Drivers
VXIplug&play drivers are supplied by the instrument vendor or
by Agilent Technologies. (For a list of VXIplug&play drivers
available from Agilent Technologies, refer to the VEE literature or

vendor for other VXIplug&play drivers.) VEE enables you to
control an instrument with a VXIplug&play driver by making
calls to the driver. Figure 81 shows an example of calls to a
