PS-2136
The PS-2136 3-Axis Acceleration Altimeter measures acceleration (in m/s/s or g)
along three axes (x,y, and z) and altitude (in feet or meters).
Acceleration Quick Start
Additional Equipment Needed
•
PASPORT
™
interface (USB Link, PowerLink, etc.) with USB-compatible computer
or a PS-2000 Xplorer
•
EZscreen or DataStudio
®
software (version 1.8.5 or later)
Equipment Setup
1. Connect the PASPORT interface to a USB port on your computer or to a USB hub.
2. Connect the sensor to a PASPORT interface. (If using an Xplorer in the classroom,
connect the Xplorer cable to your computer.)
3. The software launches when it detects a PASPORT sensor. Select a point of entry.

The altitude is the
height relative
to sea level
(in meters). Altitude
readings will vary with local variations in barometric pressure. The
sensor will resolve better than 0.3 meters.
