datalogging extravaganza

Today is saturday and we had a class discussing the issues surrounding datalogging. I am happy to report that I have had some success with this assignment thus far...albeit, only with a potentiometer and not a sensor.

I used Tom's datalogging code

to produce a textfile that dynamically updated a textfile on the ITP server...here are some results:

also....see here for the textfile:



now...why was it saying that the data was being logged at 6:02 when it was around 6:45...and the data I'm sending looks like it's 16 bit, not 8 bit. Odd. Is this because the high byte and low byte in the pic aren't being concatenated correctly?
