MYOstack GUI installing
Installing on Windows (15 min)
1. Install the "Python 3.12": Download the "Windows installer" on the official Python website: www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3129/ (file located at the bottom of the page) and run it. Then check «Add Python 3.12 to PATH» and click «Install Now».
2. Open the Python IDLE: «Start -> Python 3.12 -> IDLE», or «Start -> search «IDLE»», or in folder C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Programs\ Python\Python312\Lib\idlelib\idle.py
3. Download MYOstack GUI folder by link https://github.com/ELEMYO/MYOSTACK-GUI. To download, click on the "Code" menu (green) and select "Download ZIP". Then unzip the folder.
4. Run MYOstack GUI. In Python IDLE open "MYOstack_GUI.py" file from downloaded folder: File -> Open -><...>->MYOstack_GUI.py. Then click F5, or Run -> Run module. The program will start.
Please Note: At the first start, an Internet connection is required - the program will download and install the missing components (pyserial, pyqtgraph, qtpy5, numpy, scipy modules), this will take some time (5 minutes). Next launches will be quick.
