ComponentWorks contains tools for data acquisition and instrument 
control built on NI-DAQ driver software. ComponentWorks provides a 
higher-level programming interface for building virtual instruments 
through standard OLE controls and DLLs. With ComponentWorks, you 
can use all of the configuration tools, resource management utilities, and 
interactive control utilities included with NI-DAQ.
Using LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, or ComponentWorks software will 
greatly reduce the development time for your data acquisition and control 
application.
NI-DAQ Driver Software
The NI-DAQ driver software is included with most National Instruments 
DAQ hardware. NI-DAQ has an extensive library of functions that you can 
call from your application programming environment. These functions 
allow you to use all features of your 6527 device.
NI-DAQ addresses many of the complex issues between the computer and 
the DAQ hardware such as programming interrupts. NI-DAQ maintains a 
consistent software interface among its different versions so that you can 
change platforms with minimal modifications to your code. Whether you 
are using LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, ComponentWorks, or other 
programming languages, your application uses the NI-DAQ driver 
software, as illustrated in Figure 1-1.
