Developing Custom Applications Using SeaMAX API
The SeaI/O modules are also designed to work with third party applications. In order
to supplement this development work, Sealevel Systems provides libraries that are
linked into an application and provide an easy interface to the SeaI/O modules. These
libraries are provided for Visual C++ and Visual Basic. The interaction of the
SeaMAX API with SeaI/O modules is shown in the diagram below.
