FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
11/13/99
MEDIA, PA November 13, 1999 - Scientific Software Tools, Inc. (SST) today announced
seven new products in its DriverLINX series of data-acquisition drivers for Windows 95/98 and Windows NT.
DriverLINX now supports the following data-acquisition hardware board series from Keithley
Instruments KPCI-1800, KPCI-PIO, KPCI-3107/8, KPCI-3100, DDA 8/16, DAS 800, and DAS TC/B.
DriverLINX provides developers of custom data-acquisition applications a standardized,
application programming interface (API) to over 100 data-acquisition services. These services
create foreground and background tasks for analog I/O, digital I/O, and time and frequency
measurements. Applications communicate with DriverLINX through a C/C++ or ActiveX interface.
The new DriverLINX products maintain the same API as prior versions, providing the user with
maximum flexibility. According to SST's Director of Research and Development, Roy E. Furman,
M.D., Ph.D., "Since DriverLINX is hardware and operating system independent, users can easily
move their Windows 3.1, Windows 95/98 and Windows NT applications to the latest Keithley
Metrabyte hardware without costly rewrites".
To help developers quickly learn the capabilities of DriverLINX, extensive C++, Visual Basic,
and Delphi source code example programs are included. To speed application development,
DriverLINX includes services to display dialog boxes for configuration management, a
context-sensitive on-line help facility, and extensive error-checking and reporting
capabilities.
System requirements for running DriverLINX include an Intel or compatible 486DX or higher, 8
MB memory (Windows 95/98); 16 MB memory (Windows NT), Microsoft Windows 95/98 or Windows NT 4.0
or higher, and a supported Keithley Metrabyte data acquisition hardware board.
These new versions are available and are included at no cost upon purchase of each supported
Keithley data-acquisition board.
SST specializes in developing award-winning scientific and engineering products for Microsoft®
Windows® including DriverLINX data-acquisition device drivers, VisualSCOPE, LabOBJX Gauge™, and
LabOBJX Real-Time Chart™. SST also develops scientific and engineering software for leading
companies and is a Value-Added Reseller of Data-Acquisition Products.
