Use similar stream names for HEKA and NI DAQControllers #16

Closed cafarm closed 8 years ago

cafarm commented 8 years ago

We currently use "ANALOG_IN.0" and "DIGITAL_IN.0" style stream names for HekaDaqController, and "ai0" and "diport0" style stream names for NiDaqController. It would be nice to settle on a common standard here.

The NI style is used in National Instruments documentation/software. The HEKA style was developed specifically for Symphony. HEKA does not have a standard stream name approach AFAIK. Therefore it probably makes sense just to use the NI style across both DaqControllers.
