Defaults to COM6 and "C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Polarimeter Data" for the Port and CSV file location respectively.

To change the default COM port the code on line 1 should be changed from COM6 to the COM port of your choice

1| $port= new-Object System.IO.Ports.SerialPort COM6,9600,none,8,1

similarly the user directory should be changed from C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Polarimeter Data\ to your user directory, this can be found on line 6

6| [String]$filelocation = "C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\Polarimeter Data\"
