RUNNING THE EXAMPLES
C
The C examples are supplied as ready to run executable files (both 32-bit and 64-bit) and with complete
source code. The code has been tested with Microsoft VC++ 5.0 and Borland Developer Studio 2006.
You are free to modify the example source code in the “C” directory to be compatible with your own compiler.
In order to compile your own C or C++ programs you will need the following files:
• ATMCD32D.H C Header File
• ATMCD32D.LIB / ATMCD64D.LIB Import Library (Borland compatible)
• ATMCD32M.LIB / ATMCD64M.LIB Import Library (Microsoft compatible)
LabVIEW
The LabVIEW examples are contained in the sub-directory “LabVIEW” of the installation directory. The
LabVIEW examples are in the form of VI's and must
be run through LabVIEW 7.0 or higher (32-bit).
Visual Basic
The Visual Basic examples are contained in the sub-directory VBasic of the installation directory. Each
example contains all the source code, forms and project files to re-build executable files.
Each of the Visual Basic examples comes with a ready to run executable file.
When building you own projects you must include the file ATMCD32D.BAS. This file contains the Andor SDK
function prototypes for interfacing with the dynamic link library ATMCD32D.DLL
NOTE: To run any of the examples you will need the following files:
• ATMCD32D.DLL / ATMCD64D.DLL (depending on system)
• DETECTOR.INI: Contains initialization information (not required on iDus, iXon or Newton systems)
