Pool Shop Testing, used for personal use?

I have taken my pool water to have it tested at my local pool shop (Rec Warehouse) a few times and I have got a question. Where can I get a test station like that. LoL

What they use is basicly a platform that has 12 square slots, and the guy takes my pool water and puts some in a square tube and inserts the square tube in to the square slot. The platform is connected to a computer and send the test results to the computer and prints out a report from the water you brought in. I am deadly serious, I want to know if and how one can get one of these platforms. I am in the process of putting a home-computer system (basicly turn the house into one big computer, a smart house, touch screen in each room, centralized data for videos and music to be accessed anywhere, remote access of plumbing and electrial (going under the house ain't fun) custom security system and monitoring of mutiple aspects, I.E. Home enverioment, pet control, item usage) and am thinking if not too exspencive, intergrating it into the system. Working on remote access to the flitering system (flow shunt access control, pump speed, possible backwash if I get a sand filter) and recored the temp of the pool, be nice to report on the chems easily. rather squirt a few squares and have the computer do the rest then test, write down the results, input the results by hand.

Computerized testing of water is expensive, requires calibration and, ultimately, is less accurate than proper drop testing. PoolDoc is fully aware of all the electronic testing tools out there--and completely skeptical of all of them

I spend a minute or two a day testing my water for chlorine and pH, and 15 minutes once a week testing for FC, CC, pH, T/A and CYA. I log it in a spreadsheet.

Thats the way I have it now, only diference is that I took a Visual Basic class at school, and my final project I made a custom pool software that inputs the test results, logs them and the time and date they were loged, spits out custome reports, calculates what needs to be added and by how much by the current gallons of the day, and inventories pool chemicals and tells you when you need to get more. Teach only gave me a damn B+ LoL

My local (not L's) has one of these and they butchered my first water sample. Granted it was mostly the fault of the operator (young kid) but they had my ph below 6.8 and everything else off the charts one way or the other. With the complexities of pool water I don't think a single machine without constant calibration can provide accurate results.
