UI Overview

Data Source

The data source is freely choosable in the Data Source tab as the type.

Protocol

The protocol and data format parser depends on the choice you make in the Protocols tab as the type.

Control

Here you can start, stop and pause the data acquisition. This is the control center once everything is configured.

Profile

In this tab you can load and save profiles. A profile is a way to set up a project, where you can save all configuration items. There's a way to save and load JSON configuration files, but more interesting is that you can save the configuration right into the spreadsheet.

Debug

In the debug tab, you can enable debug and this will show you the raw data being transferred to and from the data source. This is a good aid in helping you to solve various problems with your data source.

License

In the license tab you can paste your license information and click the check button. Buying a license unlocks professional features and enables me to work on DAELOC!
