Re: Driver for Lake Shore Model 336 temperature controller

Hi Elliott,

I developed the StreamDevice LS 336 support in "ip". Attached is an updated version that
includes unit (K/C) switching. Turns out that the 336 command query for 'units'
only worked if the units were set via command (as apposed to the front panel).

These changes are not released yet so let me know if there are any problems.
