This document discusses software for controlling scanning probe microscopes and analyzing the collected data. It summarizes the key features and architecture of the "Scanning Probe Microscope" software, including its ability to operate in both online and offline modes, use of dynamic link libraries to interface with microscope hardware, and multi-threaded design to allow for real-time instrument control and data display. The software was developed using MFC and Windows NT to provide a graphical user interface for high-speed microscopes capable of video-rate imaging.
