Appendix C Sample Programming
SC-5500 programming examples are provided here for controlling the system through IEEE-488
and RS-232C interfaces. The IEEE-488 examples use functions referenced from the National
Instruments NI-488.2M GPIB reference. In each case, one source code example is in C++, the
other using QuickBasic.
