Description:
Monitoring of the environmental variables.
Temperature, relative humidity, and dew point are measured at regular time intervals and are saved into one or several text files.
When the maximum number of measurements per text file is reached, a new text file is opened.
The text files are saved in "/disk/groups/hep/flionett/TestStand/Data/<sensor>/Monitoring according to the name "Monitoring-<date>-<n>.dat", with <n> determined according to the number of rows and the maximum number of rows.

Parameters:
- <sensor>, the type of sensor;
- <date>, the date according to the yyyymmdd format.

How to run it:
python Monitoring --s <sensor> --d <date>

For example:
python Monitoring --s Hans320 --d 20150330
