Modifying the Simulation Driver

The IVI class simulation drivers provide general purpose simulation features. However, you might require more application-specific simulation capabilities. For that reason, the IVI Compliance Package includes C source code for the simulation drivers. You can customize the data simulation algorithms for your specific requirements. Because simulation drivers work with the class drivers, you can reuse the simulation code you develop with different specific instruments.

If you want to modify the user interface panels for the simulation driver, you must install LabWindows/CVI.

Note  If you modify the simulation drivers, do not change the simulation driver function prototypes. If you change the prototypes, your driver may give unpredictable results.
