I’m currently finishing an API in Java for the Control Lab (well, the missing part of code is for the temperature sensor...)

My first project using it was the automatic control of a train yard during our last train show in Paris.

For this purpose, I added a GUI in Swing to take control when needed.

I use for my laptop an USB-Serial converter too (now I need a second one as I bought some days ago a second interface :) ), but I already checked on an old computer that I can use at least two Control Lab interfaces at the same time with an unique program.

My API works with Windows and Linux.
