- Gage Driver Demo Disk
- =====================
-
- gage_cs220.device is a driver for the CompuScope 220 ISA Digital
- Oscilloscope board. With this driver and a GoldenGate 2 or GG2+
- ISA/ZorroII bus bridge, you can use the CS220 on an Amiga.
-
- [IMPORTANT NOTE: The CS220 board will not work in an A3000 as-is. It
- draws too much power on start-up and prevents the 3000's power supply
- from coming up. It works fine on 2000s, 3000Ts, and 4000s, but not the
- standard 3000. Gage can provide a modified board that works around the
- problem, or you can modify your own. Please contact us for details.]
-
- [NOTE: The driver has only been tested with the 32K board model, but
- should work with the other small (<512K) models. It may not work
- without additional work on the large models. I am unable to test this
- without access to a large-memory card.]
-
- This demo disk contains gage_null.device, a demonstration and test
- version of the driver that doesn't require a CS220 or even an ISA/Zorro
- bus bridge. It simulates the operation of the gage_cs220.device and
- provides the same interface, and allows development of software for
- gage_cs220.device when hardware is not availible. Since
- gage_cs220.device is a binddrivers-style device, and since
- gage_null.device is based on much of the same code, the gage_null.device
- is also a binddrivers style device and must be bound to an
- autoconfiguring board on your system. However, gage_null.device doesn't
- actually access the board it is bound to, so it is safe to bind the
- driver to any unbound board on your system. A ram expansion board is a
- good candidate.
-
- This disk also contains the full autodocs and headers necessary to
- program for the gage_cs220.device, and to allow you to get a feel for
- the capabilities of the real driver. Or, with the gage_null.device,
- you can develop complete applications for the CS220 without having the
- hardware or driver availible.
-
- See the file README.DataWeb for information on the DataWeb, a complete
- scientific data acquisition and processing environment that can be used
- with the gage_cs220.device.
