Jimenez Group Downloadable Field Instrument Software

This software can also be accessed via ftp client it is stored on the jimenez group server space under 'field_software'

Programs that use NI USB DAC devices may need the mx task updating to match the device connected to the logging PC. See instructions at http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/9117075591E54E868625745D0053DCCA

You may also need to port the tasks over to a new logging computer, which is explained at http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/42A2D212796B3DC2862571FF0061B402
