Programming Examples
The DSA8200 comes with sample programs that illustrate methods that you can
use to control the instrument from the GPIB interface.
The programs were written in Microsoft Visual C++, version 6.0, and were
generated using the AppWizard program. Both program listings and source codes
are included on the product software CD-ROM that comes with your instrument.
A description of each program follows:
