Track Stim Legacy

This is a build/release of the legacy code on the zhen lab mac machine.

• it runs on old hardware (mac 10.5)
• it is not compatible with older versions of micromanager
• the old mac does not have git

How To Use this Release

• There are two main files inside this release:
  - TrackStim.jar
  - testconfig_121214_01.cfg

The test config is used to recognize the xy motorized stage, and the hamamatsu camera for micromanager 1.3/
The jar file needs to be copied to the imageJ plugins folder of the micro manager installation in the lab machine.

This release is intended to provide a safe backup incase something happens to the version on the old computer
