Abstract :
A highly modular general data-acquisition software package is described. The capabilities of the package include the ability to collect and archive the data, analyze and present results in user-defined plot-formats, and link together the individual tasks of a repetitive experiment to product a fully automated turn-key solution. The modularity of the software allows it to be customized for different applications quickly and easily. Customization is further simplified by the use of high-level functions
