The FrontPanel API provides a powerful C++ interface to Opal Kelly USB and PCI Express FPGA boards.

The primary guide for the FrontPanel SDK is the FrontPanel SDK User's Manual. The documentation here is a companion reference for the FrontPanel API. This FrontPanel API reference provides details of each individual API method but lacks context. The FrontPanel SDK User's Manual is a more approachable guide to how the SDK functions as a system.

To build an application using this API, you simply need to include okFrontPanel.h from your code and ensure that okFrontPanel.dll can be found during your program execution, e.g. by putting it in the same directory as your executable.
