A node project dedicated to finding ALL LabJack devices that are able to be connected to.
npm install ljswitchboard-device_scannerReturns an array,
- containing device types (T7/Digit/etc.) as objects, which includes an array "devices",
- which contain discovered devices as objects grouped by device serial number, which contains an array of "connectionTypes",
- which are objects describing how each discovered device is available
