LabJack-Dyno-Code

Usage

1. You'll want to download and install the Normal LJM Installer
2. You can find packaged .exes under "Releases" (right-hand side, I hope you're running Windows!). Download and run it (if a SmartScreen warning comes up, hit "Run Anyway").
3. Assuming the Labjack is found (you'll see warnings if you don't), you should see a "Start" and "Stop" button. I really hope you can guess which button to press to start recording data.
4. The data files will be saved AFTER recording is stopped. It'll be in a data folder in the same place as the .exe file.

To-Dos and Notes

• Test it with a potentiometer (actually screwed in)
• Test with the load cell
• Upload .exe files to releases
• Test .exes with other computers

Should be ready for v0.1 soon!

Currently closes the file after every write (which is wasteful). Consider whether it's better to only close files on occasion.
