the list of new function names. See the driver documentation for more
information.

Web Based Driver Documentation - Driver documentation has been moved from PDF to HTML format and is
now available online at http://docs.diamondsystems.com/dscud/.

useful pages and Google searching on DSCUD function names for help.
Bug Fixes and Driver Improvements A number of bugs have been fixed for this driver release. Below
are brief notes on the significant fixes.
- Fixed bug in Hercules dscDASetSettings() which reset AD settings.
- Fixed bug in Diamond-MM dscADScanInt() under QNX which caused delays in ISR.
- Improved Quartz Measure Period function.
- Fixed bug in dscCancelOp() under Linux which could result in duplicate data in some cases.
- Improved Linux handling of delays caused by slow user interrupt functions
- Change to Diamond-MM-32-AT digital I/O behavior for functions
dscDMM32DIOOutputByte() and dscDMM32DIOInputByte().
- Bug fix for dscCounterSetRate() to not attempt to set the internal
clock if internal_clock is false.
