We provide Pulse Streamer client software interfaces for Python, Matlab, and LabVIEW, including programming examples. The Pulse Streamer clients can also be obtained via the respective open repository (PyPI, MathWorks Add-on Explorer, and VIPM). In addition, we provide the Pulse Streamer Application, a simple graphical user interface for Windows. The GUI shows the Pulse Streamer’s basic functionality and can easily be used to work with your device interactively. Furthermore, the new GUI will intuitively guide you through the processes of updating the firmware and network configuration of your Pulse Streamer 8/2.
