Today I worked on debugging and troubleshooting the code to let us connect the power meter to MATLAB. I called ThorLabs again, and they asked me to send them the error response I've been getting (now a different one, from a later line in the code). The necessary drivers and compilers are all loaded onto the computer, with the help of Anton, but the issue has been operating the load library, which will allow us to access commands for the power meter through MATLAB. I have emailed the error response to ThorLabs, but as of yet, they have not responded with any help.
While waiting for a response from ThorLabs, I helped Ashley and Pete with some of their setup and code of their own; and I also learned some more Python from the online course I have been using. Additionally, I have been looking at the documentation for various commands and functions in MATLAB to see if there is any other way to connect the power meter through it. The power meter is properly connected to the computer at least, and seems to be running fine with its native software.
