Using ADwin under Linux

The ADwin functions can be used under Linux (kernel 2.4 or higher) in all programming languages that support the integration of dynamic libraries. Our ADwin drivers give you direct access to communication and data exchange with your ADwin system. Ethernet is available for connecting the ADwin hardware.

User interfaces on the PC

Linux offers a wide range of programming languages and development environments for developing user interfaces. Use the GNU Compiler Collection or toolkits such as Qt from Trolltech, Gimp, etc. ADwin supports the scripting languages PHP and Python. You can also run ADwin systems under Linux from LabVIEW. The platform-independent programming language Java communicates with ADwin via the Ethernet interface.

	Qt Trolltech's toolkit for creating interfaces for applications in C++.
	GTK With the Gimp Toolkit, you can program interfaces for applications in C.
	GCC Select your preferred programming language from the Gnu Compiler Collection.
	PHP Write scripts to connect your ADwin system to web services.
	Python Python is a simple, object-oriented, and platform-independent scripting language with powerful functionality. Scripts for ADwin also run on other platforms without modification.
	LabVIEW Communication and data exchange with ADwin take place via VIs. The range of functions is identical to the Windows version.
