  • Lets you download the data from the unit into a csv file
  • Shows the data in a table view for easy double-checking

##Hardware This program works with the official Jaycar hardware, and has been tested with a MS6172. It is also worth noting that the MS6174 converter is just a CP2012 UART<-> USB converter with a 2.5mm output jack (tip=rx,ring=tx,sleeve=GND -> tx/rx could be other way around, only going by silkscreen) When i bought my unit i could not manage to connect to it, upon investigation the 2.5mm jack cable had Tx and Rx shorted together, remaking this cable with better quality materies fixed the issue. ###Licence The code is currently licenced under "GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE v3". If you wish to use this code under other licences please contact me :)
