Reset to zero:
The force plate sensor comes pre-calibrated however
after use you may find that the sensor is slightly off or
you may want to run an experiment that requires you
to zero the sensor with a constant applied force to it.
To zero the sensor:
1.
Connect the 900-235 force sensor to a
computer/tablet/smart device following one of
the guides below.
2.
Open the Edu-Logger software.
3.
When your sensor has been detected click on the
force plate sensor icon (on the left side of your
screen)
4.
Remove all weight from the sensor and click
reset to zero your force sensor.
5.
Your force plate sensor is now recalibrated.
Note:
You can zero the scale with a constant force
being applied to it to set that value as your new
“zero”. This also is used to eliminate the “Tare”.
Quick start procedure:
PC or Mac Computer
