The source code for this NEXTSTEP 3.2 driver is released
under the terms of the GNU General Public License.
The driver is distributed in two forms. The first, IEEE488Driver0.9.src.tar.gz,
contains the sources for the driver and associated support routines. Get this
if you want to see how a DriverKit device driver using interrupts and
host-master DMA works. A binary version of the driver is available in the
Installer.app packege IEEE488Driver0.9.pkg.
To install the driver from the IEEE488Driver0.9.pkg package:
1 - Log in as root.
2 - Double click on the IEEE488Driver0.9.pkg file.
- Click on the `Install' button.
3 - Run Configure.app:
- click on the `Other' button at the top of the window.
- click on the `Add...' button.
This will bring up the `Add Other Devices' panel
- click on the `National Instruments GPIB-PCII/IIA' line.
- click on the `Add' button.
- set the IRQ/DMA/Port information to match the
way the card is configured.
- set the controller GPIB address and timeout appropriately.
The default values are probably a good start.
- save the configuration.
4 - Reboot your computer
