	*		*Further bug fixes and work on USB interface: now able to dynamically set number of DDC232 modules remotely.
			**Will update UART FPGA code to also allow setting number of DDC232 modules remotely.

			**Local live plot reads last line in each new file to plot. No averaging in order to reduce latency between DAQ.
			*Features to implement:
			**Replace number of measurements per file with a time spent on each file, in order to lock-in the rate at which new files appear.
			**At FTDI level, scale photodiode data and add real Bragg curve. Add fitting routine to writeCSV or update liveFit to perform averaging and fitting.
