MX-Foundation SDK offers you groups of function calls that interface with on-board MX core software and control all protocol and I/O supported by MAX Technologies. The on-board MX core handles the various protocol & I/O timing, data scheduling, buffering and filtering tasks
 This combination offloads your host computer and makes available resources for your critical software applications.  MX-Foundation gives you high-level abstraction (channel class-oriented) of hardware and  communication protocols.
In addition to the overall learning curve process and the time-to-market that can be tremendously reduced, MX-Foundation also offers a full evolutionary capability by being hardware and operating system independent, thus reducing your overall system life-cycle support cost.
MX-Foundation allows to reduce the difficulties and the engineering cost related to systems development that require the integration of different communication protocols, analog and discrete signals.
MX-Foundation also allows to reduce the cost and time inconveniences of being trapped with a software application that runs under a specific operating system and hardware form factor, which might not be upgradeable to a new environment.
 
Supported Carrier Boards
MX-Foundation for Windows and Linux can be used with MAX Technologies’ series-400 PCI, cPCI, VME and PXI intelligent carrier boards.
MX-Foundation for Mac OS X 10.5.6 or later (Leopard) can be used with Apple MacBook Pro, Mac Pro, XServe and MAX Technologies’ series-400 PCI intelligent carrier boards.
