# Mode Selector
When running the app, you will be greeted with the main page, which is the mode selector. It's pretty simple, just select one of the modes. Only two of them are enabled at the moment.
There is a top menu bar where you can ping the CyDAQ and access the debug page. None of the other options work at the moment.

On this page, you can collect samples from the CyDAQ with any custom settings you want and save them to a file.
You can set the sample rate with the dropdown menu or typing in a value, and you can set the Input and Filters with the dropdowns.

# Plotter
This page can be used to plot sample data on a graph. You can plot it instantly or have a delay to have a live plotting effect (this will be used in live streaming plotting data in a later feature).
First, you entire a file name by either clicking the button or typing in a file path. Then, you can choose between a scatter plot or a line plot. Next, you can choose the graphing speed delay by using the slider, setting it to 0 for zero delay (as fast as python can plot the data) or up to 100ms between plotting per delay. Then you can start the plotting with the "Start" button, and if you're "streaming" it, you can pause/unpause the graph with the pause button. At any time, you can clear the graph and plot another file.

You can click the "Home" button in the top left to return to the mode selector page. This will remove the graph window, but it will save the graph that you currently have on it.
