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
