Software
The software developed to support the SMT387 Data Logger will transfer data
between one or two SDBs and one or two discs in two modes:
1. Record: Read in continuous mode from the SDBs and write to the discs,
stopping under user control or when the discs are full.
2. Playback: Read from the saved data on disc and write to the SDBs.
This document assumes the reader is familiar with Diamond, PCI, Visual C++, and
Sundance TIMs.
