Although all of our USB boards come with their own
control software and DLL that enables the user to get "up and running"
quickly with their application, these software items only support one
device per PC. For applications that may require multiple boards of the
same type or a mixture of any/all types we have BeeHive software.
This application software allows any number and any mix of our USB boards
to be used at the same time on the same PC.
BeeHive software consists of two parts.
1. A DLL library of functions to allow the user to write his
own programs (eg in visual basic, C, C++ etc...) very easily without needing to get to
know the more difficult complexities of USB communications protocols
etc...
2. A multi-tabbed application that has a separate tab for each
type of board we manufacture and uses the DLL to provide manual controls
for all of the facilities on each board.
BeeHive application has a separate tabbed page for
each type of board we make and on that page there are a full set of
controls to allow evaluation and operation of the attached board.
Where there are more than one of a particular type
of board then the appropriate tabbed page provides a means of selecting
the board you intend by an identifying number based on it's USB number.
BeeHive software opens the door to very large and
powerful control systems based on a selection of specific boards from our
range.
BeeHive software is fully compatible with all
previous versions of our current range of
control boards
Compatible with Windows 2000,
Windows XP and Windows Vista
