Am I missing something.
Am I missing something.
I am investigating the use of flowstone for data acquisition. It advertised writing to files and display of data on computer, I was expecting to find modules supporting things like simulated digital panel meters, simulated analog meters simulated chart recorders and file handling capability, Admittedly I have only been at this for a couple of hours but i am coming up very short, the only meter I find is a vintage meter for display of data.
Can anyone point me to examples of data acquisition using flow stone that has these components in it?

Re: Am I missing something.
Yes I think you are missing something, FlowStone is a 'programming language' for engineering ideal for data acquisition.
The idea being that you can quickly 'program' your own unique applications (to sell or distribute), so it's up to you how you want things to look.
There are various examples of GUI objects like meters, knobs, sliders and buttons that you can modify to create you own user interface, in most cases its just a case of loading your own bitmaps etc.
Many GUI modules have a parameters option 'P' where you can see the quick options for that module, often there is a load bitmap option inside. Other modules you can double click on to go inside and just modify the source code as you like.
One of the best ways to start with FlowStone is to 1) Read the manual & 2) play around with the examples files, and see what is possible: http://www.dsprobotics.com/support/viewforum.php?f=11 There are a couple of extra pages of examples also at the bottom here.
Welcome and I hope you enjoy FlowStone as much as we do
