File Monitoring

Some instruments only support passing data through the use of a file; the Instrument Interface Module makes the process easy.

You can also read values from external software programs that only support passing data through the use of files. The format of the data can vary from a reports format, CSV (comma separated values) or even a mixture of the two.
