Once you’ve obtained the necessaries – see System Essentials – you can go ahead and follow the example system development flow below in order to learn more about how to use DIYDAQ.
Starter project: "TWANG!"
A metal ruler is clamped to the bench and flicked so that it moves and then slows down naturally. The displacement is displayed as a graph in real time using DIYDAQ:
Step-by-step – creating the TWANG!
Setting up the hardware
Assemble the STM32 board by soldering the rows of pins supplied onto the sides and end of the board.
to 
Connect the ST-LINK programmer 
to the STM32 ARM chip
using wiring as shown:
The pins are connected as shown:
- GND to GND
- SWSCK to SWSCK
- SWDIO to SWDIO
- 3V3 to 3V3
Note that the ST-Link programmer has two rows of pins – use the lower row (even-numbered pins)
Plug the ST-LINK programmer in to a USB socket on your laptop.
Loading the DIYDAQ executable onto the development board
Download the free ST-LINK development utility by visiting:
https://www.st.com/en/development-tools/stsw-link004.html
and following the instructions to install it.
Open the ST-Link Utility by double-clicking the ST-LINK icon. 
From the top menu, select Target and then Connect from the dropdown menu.
The screenshot below shows a successful connection.
You should now open the DIYDAQ-supplied executable file by selecting File > Open file as shown below:
A dialogue box will appear – use this to select the executable image file.
Use the Target dropdown menu to select “Program & Verify” as shown:
Download the executable file onto the chip using the dialogue and selecting “Start”.
Successful programming is shown by the screen which then appears:
You may then use Target > Disconnect and unplug the programmer.
