Now available for download is the new Java LJUD wrapper and examples for the Windows UD library (LabJack U3, U6 and UE9 driver). Using JNA it provides 32 and 64-bit Java support. This replaces the old Java LJUD wrapper which used a JNI dll and only supported 32-bit Java. For full details refer to the Java LJUD download's README.txt file.
Here is a simple code demonstration to read the voltage from AIN1 on the U6 ...

We released new firmware and software for the Digit-TL/H series data loggers which has some nice improvements.
New zoom tools. Starting in Otero version 1.53, there is a tool which enables zoom selection, zoom in on point, zoom extent, and a few other options to help users view their data.
Starting in firmware version 1.21, the Digit-TL/H recovers from replacing the battery, without having to re-connect it to the computer to begin a new logging session. When the new battery is inserted, firmware will remember where it left off, and continue logging data. The downloaded data will contain a flag indicating when the power failure occurred. You can see this feature in action if you set the log interval to 10s, let it log a few data points, then un-plug the battery for a minute or two, and plug the battery back in, and then download the data.
Non-critical settings are auto-saved. That is, it's not necessary to begin a new logging session when only settings such as the Device Name are changed.

Kipling received a version number increment to put it inline with our latest (windows only) version of Kipling that is released in our main installer and is considered to be in a public beta phase. This version of Kipling may have a few bugs, however it is a big improvement to the currently distributed version of Kipling and is recommended to almost all customers using a T7/T7-Pro.
More information about Kipling and how to get the latest version can be found on the Kipling Support page.

The popular Digit-(TL/THL) series loggers now has a replaceable CR1632 battery! Another key improvement is the addition of a clear plastic enclosure so that light readings can operate while inside. If customers prefer the rugged aluminum enclosure, it can be purchased as an add-on item. See the Digit-TL/TLH product page for more information.

When we first started selling Digit-TL devices, we decided to stow one outside under a rock, and another in the pond to see how they'd hold up. After 6 months we downloaded the results to verify operation, and everything looked good, so we threw them back out. Now, after a full year, they're still going strong. See the data and photos below.
Each day is a small spike, and the yearly trend is shown by the overall shape of the graph. The two curves on the graph demonstrate how the water acts as a thermal buffer by regulating fluctuations in daily temperature. If you look carefully, you can tell when there is snow covering the Digit-TL on land, because the temperature fluctuation is minimal (like the Digit-TL in the water).

Great video filmed Sunday morning outside the kitchen of a LabJacker's house ... just about a mile from the LabJack office in Lakewood, CO.
A rabbit has been living in this tube (drain pipe) for the last couple weeks. Sunday morning our local bobcat found it and spent a full hour trying to get at the rabbit before he finally gave up.
