Welcome to LabPal, a versatile environment for running experiments on a computer.
You are currently using the web interface that belongs to a laboratory (or lab for short). A lab contains a set of experiments. When an experiment is executed, it produces one or many output parameters, whose data may be used to create tables, plots and macros.
The execution of the experiments is managed by a lab assistant. Typically, one views the list of experiments, picks some of them and adds them to the assistant's queue. One can then start/stop the assistant at any time, and view the status of completed experiments and plots.
At any moment, the current status of the lab (complete with any data produced by experiments that are finished) can be saved to a file. The reverse operation is also possible: one can (up)load a saved file and resume the execution of the lab from that point.
These are the basic rules for using LabPal. If the author of this specific lab has written a description, you can read it in the home page.
For more information about using LabPal, please refer to its web site, which includes an extensive user manual and tutorial videos.
