I have a Measurement Computing 1208FS-Plus that is connected to a measurement device. The 1208 plugs directly into my laptop and I want to use Splunk Light to capture the measurements real time 1000ms and capture that data for historic. I think that I need a VB.Net or c# application to capture data from 1208 and push to Splunk. I also think there may be an Add-On in Splunk to help but I am not sure.

Everything is local on the laptop not to cloud.

What I have tried:

I have tried speaking to Splunk directly and they said to talk forums for technical questions. I have read the Splunk and MCC documentation and have spoken to Tech at both companies. I have combed forums and I have reached out to programmers and watched youtube.com to find the answer.

Splunk basically told you to get lost.

Time to go spelunking for a different solution; unless you like dead ends.

You will need to write an application as you assumed. Luckily both the parties involved have documentation, APIs, and or SDKs available.
Measurement Computing | Custome Programming | Library | C#.NET[^]
Splunk SDK for C#[^]

Now you should have roadmaps to tell you not only how to get the data from the 1208, but also how to send it to Splunk.
