OK, so here is some feedback.

I can confirm that writing a value to Easystart starts a measurement:
  - It sets delay to 0
  - It set frequency to the same value that was written to Easystart
  - It clears previous samples
  - It clears rollover
  - It starts the mission.
  - (It probably also starts the clock, but I can't confirm that,
because I started it already manually.)

I have one problem though: I can't seem to be able to figure out how to
start a measurement with rollover.
 - Easystart starts is w/o rollover.
 - If I just enable rollover, it stops the running mission.
 - If I simply try to launch the mission by any of the intuitive ways,
it won't start.
    (I am trying these:
      - writing 0 to delay
      - writing a value into frequency
      - writing YES into running
     )

So I guess there is a sequence of things I must to to start a
measurement with rollover...

Any help would be appreciated.
(Next thing I will do, I'll look at the source code for easystart to
figure out the sequence for rollover.)
