LabAuthor software provides educators with an easy-to-use tool for editing and writing LabTutor experiments. LabAuthor
users can edit any of the preconfigured physiology, pharmacology or biology LabTutor experiments, or create their own
experiments using the student-friendly LabTutor interface and step-by-step experiment structure.
For more information about what is available in LabAuthor licenses, training and additional support download the LabAuthor Information Sheet or contact your nearest ADInstruments representative.
Easy-to-Use Authoring and Editing Tools
LabAuthor educators do not have to learn any programming or html code. The software has a straightforward graphical
user interface. You simply click, hold and drag new objects, text and graphics into the experiment pages. Users can also
edit the pages of existing LabTutor experiments quickly and easily.
The LabAuthor Toolbox provides all the tools you need. Formatting toolbars and menus appear once you have selected a
specific object. You can use the LabTutor Kernel to set up data acquisition channels with the correct filtering and display
settings for your signal and experiment.
