Appendix A: DataStudio Setup Instructions
The instructions below outline the recommended experiment setup for PASPORT and
ScienceWorkshop sensors. Follow the steps specific for the type of sensor and interface (i.e.
PASPORT or ScienceWorkshop).
Procedure Steps
PART I: Plug the
sensors into the
interface: PASPORT: a) Plug the Force Sensor(s) and/or Acceleration Sensors
into a PASPORT interface. b) Connect the PASPORT interface (i.e. USB
Link, PowerLink, etc.) to a USB port on your USB-compatible computer.
c) When the PASPORTAL window opens, select “Launch DataStudio.”
OR
ScienceWorkshop: a) Plug the Force Sensor(s) and/or Acceleration
Sensors into an analog channel(s) on a
ScienceWorkshop
interface.
b) Launch DataStudio.
PART II: Set up your
experiment PASPORT: a) Click the Setup button to open the Experiment Setup
window. b) Use this window to setup or change sensor settings, such as
the sample rate or measurement units.
ScienceWorkshop: a) In the Welcome to DataStudio window, double
click “Create Experiment.” b) In the Sensors list, click and drag the Force
Sensor icon(s) to analog channels on the picture of the interface (i.e. to
the same letters in which you have the sensors connected.) c)
(Optional): If using an Acceleration Sensor, click and drag the
Acceleration Sensor icon to the picture on the interface.
PART III: Create the
force or acceleration
equations a) Create an equation for the normal force: F= force*cos(angle) where
“force” is the force in Newtons and “angle” is the track angle in degrees.
b) Create an equation for the angle: angle=arctan (y,x) where “y” is
acceleration parallel to the inclined plane and “x” is acceleration
perpendicular to the inclined plane. (Note: Keep the DEG button
depressed.)
(For instructions on creating equations, see Appendix B or the
DataStudio online help.)]
PART IV: Collect Data a) In the Displays list, double click on a Graph display. b) From the Data
list, drag the force icon over the y-axis in the graph. c) From the Data
list, drag the angle icon over the x-axis in the graph and release the
mouse. d) Click the Start button on the main toolbar.
