6.11 Application Software Development for the MTw

The MT Manager Windows® GUI application software created by Xsens uses exactly the

same SDK/API available to developers (xsens_cmt.dll) with the dynamic library interface.

This is the same API that is provided for software development in the Software Development

Kit (SDK). Source code for the lower levels of the API (drivers) are supplied for reference but

are not recommended to use for application development on Windows or Linux.

Static LIBs as well as DLLs are provided for developers for both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.

The DLL also includes a COM interface for easy application development in applications that

support the COM-interface, such as MATLAB, Excel, LabVIEW etc.

For detailed documentation on the API please refer to the Application Programming

Interface (API) reference documentation made available as HTML and the supplied example

source code for C++, C#, LabVIEW and MATLAB.

From MT SDK 3.8 there is also a Linux version of the SDK.
