Logging
: PASCO wireless sensors can either stream live
data to a compatible device or log data (save it to the
sensor’s memory). The data can then be uploaded to the
device for display and analysis at a later time. Logging
capability supports long-term or remote data collection
while not connected to the device.
Note: Versions of SPARKvue and PASCO Capstone
available in 2016 will support logging. Check the PASCO
Web page at:
www.pasco.com/software
for the latest software version.
Set-up
Connecting the pH Probe
Hold the Wireless pH Sensor in one hand and the pH
Probe in the other. Align the tabs on the sensor’s BNC
connector with the slots on the BNC connector at the end of
the pH Probe. Push the probe’s BNC connector onto the
sensor’s BNC connector. Twist the probe’s BNC connector
clockwise (left-to-right) about one-quarter turn to lock it in
place.
To remove the pH Probe from the Wireless pH Sensor,
reverse the process. NOTE: When removing the probe, it
may help to push the pH Probe onto the pH Sensor
connector slightly before twisting the BNC connector
counter-clockwise to release the probe.
Removing the Storage
Bottle
1.
Hold the pH Probe vertically so
that the solution will not spill out
of the bottle.
2.
Unscrew the plastic cap and
remove the bottle. Keep the
storage solution for later use.
3.
Push the bottle cap and the
rubber washer up the pH Probe
shaft to keep them out of the
way.
