Suggested Reading
The topics covered in this book are intended to provide you with the information you need to use the devices presented in this chapter. The primary sources of information for installing and programming devices such as data transmitters and DAQ units are, of course, the manuals supplied by the manufacturers. You should carefully read the documentation for a new device, as not all devices are intuitive or simple to use (very few are, actually). To that end, I’ve assembled a few links to online documents and other sources of information for the devices covered in this chapter:
- http://www.omega.com/DAS/pdf/D1000.pdf
An overview of the D1000 family of data transmitter products from Omega.
- http://www.omega.com/Manuals/manualpdf/M0662.pdf
The Omega D1000 series user’s manual.
- http://labjack.com
The source for the U3 and U6 LabJack devices, as well as the Python interface. The website contains application notes, a blog, and many other items of interest to LabJack users.
