I would like to write my own code for this 8 analog and 8 digital board. Looked at the company's examples and they are Very unhelpful....All I found is a bunch of declares... Has anyone written code for this device and willing to share? I'm semi retired and limited resources...
Thanks

I downloaded the software and saw a bunch of complete projects with source code. What are you trying to do and on what OS and programming language?

You saw complete working stand alone running example, that I could snip out to rewrite in my favorite language PowerBASIC Console Compiler 6? I mised that, can you forward the link? I want to have full control to read analog ports and to configure the 8 ports of digital IO either as inpout and then read them or out puts to control a relay. I have several projects in mind, one is and antenna switch to control relays to switch antennas, the other is to use the analog to take SWR readings on transmitters. I am a ham radio operator(WA9NLA) and retired engineer from Purdue, this might even turn into an article for QST magazine, who knows. I love tinkering as a way to pass the time.

Your best bet might be to look at the C example and convert to PowerBasic, assuming you can call functions from the C lib provided.

Supposedly the PB docs state you can do it, I've not done it, but then there are a lot of things I've not done, like climb mount everest... heee.. Just sweat equity is all thats needed.
Thanks

Yes, it would take some time...

I did find the better VB6 examples you spoke of, don't know how I missed them. The long hours of doing hardware & software takes its toll... My typical day is I work till I crash.... Laters
