Abstract

Introduction This document describes the Fluke 1529 server application. This server amounts to a user-mode device driver capable of managing one or more Fluke/Hart model 1529 preci- sion temperature measurement instruments. It is implemented by the uke1529Server.cpp source module. The server supports the client interface dened and implemented by the les uke1529ClientLib.h and uke1529ClientLib.cpp respectively. A standard text-mode test menu client for the server is implemented by uke1529Menu.cpp. The primary documentation for the Fluke 1529 server source code is the Doxygen-generated HTML documentation associated with each of the above source les. That documentation set is automatically built based on the source code itself. It provides the most detailed, most up-to-date descriptions of the code. The document you are reading now is supplemental, and is intended to provide deeper background for the server and its client API. If contradictions between this document and the Doxygen-generated documentation are found, the Doxygen- generated documentation should be considered correct. Like most of our hardware interfacing servers, the Fluke 1529 server is not necessarily in- tended to provide an exhaustive interface to all of the hardware's capabilities. Instead, only that subset of functionality that we need for our current projects is supported. For our particular applications, that means the ability to congure the hardware to work with PRT or thermistor type temperature probes, and to read back the temperatures sensed by those probes at any time.
