Since the last Streams5 service pack (June 2006) this module has become obsolete. Streams5 device drivers are now capable of outputting real-time data log files for these instruments, so all the control is done from within the SDK (AIRSLoader.dll)

Our data acquisition system has 3 devices that collect data crucial to the project. The GPS receiver, the watson IMU, and the laser rangefinder all transmit data via an RS232 interface. The goal of this software module is to record information from all 3 instruments simultaneously with as little data loss and corruption as possible.
