To make full use of NPort 4511’s hardware functions, you must first develop
your own customized program to be downloaded to NPort 4511. This allows you
to use NPort 4511 as a major component in your communications system. The
program is developed on a PC with a Turbo C or Borland C development
platform, and then downloaded to NPort 4511. NPort 4511’s Developing Mode
and Running Mode are designed to make this procedure as straightforward as
possible.
Refer to the NPort Programmable Communication Gateway Programmer’s
Guide and NPort PCG API Reference for information on how to develop your
NPort 4511 program.
