COM Component

Features

Simple to use - just create the monitor object you want, set the IP address property and call the Poll function

Easy installation - the COM component is automatically registered by the supplied installer program

Sample code - two samples are provided, one in Visual Basic and another in Visual C++ using MFC

Example

The following code in Visual Basic 6 illustrates how easy it is:

Dim e4 As New SensatronicsModelE
e4.Model = "E4"
e4.IpAddress = "192.168.1.10"
e4.Poll
Dim Probe As Probe
For Each Probe in e4.Probes
Print "Probe )" & Str$(Probe.Number) & " ) " & Probe.Name & " currently reads " & Str$(Probe.MostRecentDataPoint.Value) & Probe.MostRecentDataPoint.Unit
Next

Requirements

The Sensatronics SDK requires Microsoft Windows 2000 SP3 or above; Windows Installer 3.1; MSXML 3.0 or above; and the runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries for Visual C++ 2005.

Download

Download the Sensatronics COM based SDK (version 1.1.1.165) (191KB) installation file.

The Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) installs runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries required to run applications developed with Visual C++ on a computer that does not have Visual C++ 2005 installed.

Installation Instructions

To install the Sensatronics SDK all you need to do is double-click the downloaded .msi file and follow the instructions.

Java Library

Features

Simple to use - just create the sensor object, set the IP address property and call the poll function

Easy installation - put the Java based Jar file on your CLASSPATH somewhere and you are away

Sample code - a simple command line program is supplied to demonstrate how to use the library

Requirements

The Jar file has been tested on Java Runtime Environment 5. I see no reason why it won’t run on previous releases, though we haven’t tested it as yet. Please get in touch if you have any questions.
