Potential Errors and Fixes
You get an "unable to connect to LabJack"/LJME not found error when you try to send in a pulse.
→ Restart the computer. There is a cable in the LabJack that will factory reset the device each time it loses power.
You can't remote in to the computer.
→ Make sure you are on summit wifi.
→ Make sure you are using the proper login and that it is configured to log in automatically.
You get a "USB device asking for more power than port can supply" error.
→ Restart the computer.
