Appendix D – Interprocess Communication (IPC)
The communication to the process imager device is handled by the PI Connect software (Imager.exe)
only. A dynamic link library (ImagerIPC2.dll) provides the interprocess communication (IPC) for other
attached processes. The DLL can be dynamically linked into the secondary application. Or it can be done
static by a lib file too. Both Imager.exe and ImagerIPC.dll are designed for Windows Vista/ 7/ 8
only. The application must support call-back functions.
The ImagerIPC.dll will export a bunch of functions that are responsible for initiating the
communication, retrieving data and setting some control parameters.
