What's new? Quite a lot:
- I2C based datalogging for the GM signals, too
- SQL data storage (SQLite3) with CSV export
- Database structure changed
- AVR records coincidences
- UI program revised
- LOG.py main datalogging script added
- export.py database to csv export script added

How to update?
0. sudo apt-get install python-smbus i2c-tools
If you already have the code, you can skip the step above. Just connect up your RPi with the detector as described on the link above (STEP 4) and:
1. cd muonhunter
If you've been experimenting with the previous database save it and copy it somewhere else.
Then delete it from the directory:
2. rm muonhunter.db
3. git pull origin
(unless you made modifications to the code, if this is the case after saving your work into a different directort you'll have to do a
git reset --hard origin/master to get the latest files )
4. cd avr
5. Change the serial number in the MuonHunter.h file to your serial number
nano MuonHunter.h
locate this line and amend:
volatile uint8_t SERIAL = <your serial number>;
ctrl + o
enter
ctrl + x
6. make install

Note: you'll still have to do a firmware update on the detector, but that should be easy, just connect up the right wires and follow steps 1-6 above.
