Requires Windows OS. No python knowledge required. + +### Before Installation: +1. Member of dev team gives GS a JUAMI Potentiostat with a 1kOhm resistor. +1. GS checks if miniconda installed on their computer. + 1. GS opens a terminal. + 1. GS types conda. + 1. If user recieves message "'conda' is not a recognized...", user enters "pip install conda" into the command line. + +### Installation: +1. GS recieves email from member of dev team with link to release page. +1. GS follow instructions on release page to install pytentiostat program. + +### Experimental Setup: +1. GS plugs the USB cable into the computer and the potentiostat. +1. GS attaches working electrode to one side of the resistor and attaches the remaining electrodes to the other side. + +### Program Setup: +1. GS copies the default example config file to an easy to navigate to directory (WD). +1. GS opens up a console window. +1. GS navigates to the WD. +1. GS types command pytentiostat. + +### Pytentiostat Operation: +1. Pytentiostat prints to console "Welcome to the JUAMI pytentiostat interface!". +1. Pyentiostat prompts "Press enter to connect to a JUAMI potentiostat.". +1. GS presses enter. +1. Pytentiostat prints to console "Searching for potentiostat...". +1. Pyentiostat prints to console "Pytentiostat connected to COM". +1. Pytentiostat prints to console "Press enter to load the config file". +1. GS presses enter. +1. Pytentiostat prints to console "Press enter to start the experiment". +1. Pytentiostat runs experiment in config. +1. Pyentiostat displays plot of real-time data to user. +1. After running experiment, pytentiostat saves the data to their desktop. +1. Pytentiostat promopts "Would you like to repeat the last experiment? [y/n]". +1. GS types n. +1. Pytentiostat program closes.
