Virtual I/O board

Virtual I/O board

Virtual I/O board

(OP)
Hi,
I am doing a project which requires using 2 existing softwares:
   + Software A was written to produce 3 analog outputs and it supports the analog output board ACL 6126.
   + Software B was written to receive the 3 analog outputs produced by software A and analyse them. It supports the card DT9800.

Obviously, the 2 softwares can be installed in the same PC.
Is there a way to feed the outputs of software A to software B without actually using the I/O boards?
A restriction is that I am not allowed to do any modification on software A.

Thanks ;)

RE: Virtual I/O board

The same answer as last time applies.  You need to find the specific information about the drivers for both cards and write a new driver that intercepts the I/O commands for the DAC card and simulate the response from the ADC card

TTFN
