Sample is a completely "bare bones" example program showing how to
use the PARxCH function library, parxch.dll or libpar.so, to control
the PARxCH board.

It initializes the board, starts execution, waits for data ready, and
then prints it to the screen.  Sample.c has no command line options.
You must recompile to change its initialization parameters.

Two different executables are generated from the sample program.
Sample links to the PARxCH function library statically while sampled
links to it dynamically.

Sampled will fail to run if it can not find the DLL or shared library
at run time.  Under Windows, you need to set the path environment by
typing:

   set path=%path%;\sr\parxch\lib

This command can also be placed in your autoexec.bat file.

Under Linux, you need to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
by typing:

   LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

or sourcing setlib.  See the makefile in the ../lib directory for 
more details.

Under DOS, sampled is not made since dynamic linking is not available.

How To Update Drivers Manually

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.

  • Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).

  • Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.

  • Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.

  • Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.

  • From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
