Hi Justin,
I just loaded the latest version of WinPcap (4.0.1) and built mcaAIM.exe
under Cygwin on my desktop Windows PC. I used it successfully to
control the Camberra AIM MCA here. My PC is called "Subaru". Note that
in mcaAIMShowModules Subaru is listed as owning module NI00059e. I was
able to acquire a spectrum, and to control all of the ICB modules.
There must be something different about your system, but I'm not sure
what it could be.
Here is the output when I start the soft IOC.
