Introduction
The Wireless Force-Acceleration Sensor is a
combination wireless
and
USB sensor that connects to a
computer or tablet device through
, and can
also connect to a computer with a USB cable (included).
The sensor measures force up to ±50 newtons (N),
acceleration up to ±16 g (1 g = 9.8 m/s
2
), and angular
rotation rate up to ±2000 degrees per second (dps). The
sensor measures force as a push or pull along its X axis
and measures acceleration in three dimensions (X, Y,
and Z). The PASCO Data Collection Software can show
the resultant acceleration. The sensor uses a
micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) device.
The sensor is designed to optimize the battery usage
time. Since each sensor has a unique Device ID
number, more than one can be connected to a computer
or tablet at the same time.
