Edit GOpen() call as necessary

In a text editor, open x_simple.c. Find the GOpen() call and update the address to match the desired hardware. See the documentation for GOpen() for address formatting options.

Review and Modify source

In a text editor, open x_examples.cpp. Find the GOpen() call and update the address to match the desired hardware. See the documentation for GOpen() for address formatting options.
Find the #if 0 preprocessor block enclosing the example calls. Change to #if 1 to run the examples. Comment out the function calls to be avoided. Note some calls attempt to move motors and not all functions are compatible with all Galil products.
