Step 5: Using the Applications

The following section provides information on using the installed Utilities, Demonstration

applications and Drivers, both for Windows and Linux environments.

Running the MD1 SFP Application

MD1 SFP is an application which is intended to verify the functionality of the module and to

serve as an easy to use and convenient program for capturing, displaying, and archiving

captured data.

This program uses the AgMD1 and other associated drivers to control any supported digitizers.

It is installed at the same time as those drivers.

Windows

There are currently two versions of the SFP application available under Windows. The SFP 1.x

version is gradually being phased out by the introduction of the MD1 SFP (5.x). However at this

point in time the SFP 5 application does not fully support all products, modes of operation or

features that are supported by the SFP 1.x, and so the user must decide which SFP to use

depending on their application.

MD1 SFP (5.x)

The Soft Front Panel SFP 5 can be launched from Start > All Programs > Agilent > MD1 >

MD1 SFP or MD1 SFP_64

MD1 SFP 1.x

This application which was previously known as 'AcqirisLive' has one feature which the

MD1SFP (5.x) does not; that it supports the acquisition from multiple modules simultaneously.

Users who require this feature or prefer this application, may continue to utilize this version.

To run the application: Start > All Programs > Agilent > MD1 > MD1 SFP 1.x

Linux

To run the MD1 SFP 5 for Linux, enter the following command:
