D4100 ActiveX programming

Hi,

I have a trouble to make an application software with D4100 ActiveX. I bought D4100 kit with 0.95" DMD and D4100 Explorer V1.(V1.0.0.0) and tried to use its ActiveX functions. When I used connectdevice() function, it returned "0". It was used right bin file, "D4100_GUI_FPGA.bin". It was tested windows XP and windows 7. The application software in the package worked in both windows system but my application didn't work.

I've used previous version, D4000 kit, D4000 software(ActiveX) and "usb_main.bin", there was no problem. I changed activex controller (DDC4000 -> DDC4100), function name and bin file. LabView and Labwindows/CVI were used.

    I solved the problem. It's because of DDC4100.ocx file. I replaced the file from D4100 source code (Release Ver/API/Source/DDC4100_ocx/Release/DDC4100.ocx). It worked.

    Hello DongGee,

    we are glad you were able to solve the issue.  It is also possible to use the D4100_usb.dll file directly and bypass the ocx layer.  This tends to result in slightly faster operation since it removes a layer from the calls.  The *.h file for the D4100_usb.dll should be in the source  code release file and also covered in the programmers guide, both of which are available on the MySecureSoftware made available by the Design Partner that you purchased your kit from.
