General Operation Requirements and Setup
A. Operation Requirements and Precautions
a) The interface must be used with PASCO’s DataStudio software and
ScienceWorkshop
sensors. The interface will not work with PASPORT
sensors or other sensors, software, or interface (i.e. Xplorer, etc.)
Also, you can use only one 750 USB interface per computer.
b) A power supply and USB cable are required for operation. Always
plug the power supply into a standard three-pronged, grounded wall
outlet.
WARNING:
The interface is not water-proof. To avoid the risk
of shock, keep the interface, AC adapter, and cable away from water
and liquids. If conducting an experiment with liquids or water, place
the liquid container at least one foot away from the interface. For
maximum protection, keep liquids in closed containers with covers.
Also during operation, do not block the ventilating louvres on the top
of the interface box. The louvres help prevent the interface from
overheating during prolonged use.
