turned so the X-axis is vertical but pointing downward, 

the Acceleration X-axis reading is -1.0 g (where “g” 

represents the acceleration due to gravity).

If the sensor is 

rotated so that the 

Y-axis on the top of 

the sensor is vertical 

and pointing upward, 

the Acceleration 

Y-axis reading is 1.0 

g. If the sensor is 

turned so that the 

Y-axis is pointing 

downward, the 

Acceleration Y-Axis 

reading is -1.0 g. 

If the sensor is 

placed so the back is 

on a horizontal 

surface with the 

label facing upward, 

the Acceleration 

Z-axis reading is 1.0 g. If the sensor is placed label side 

down so that the back is facing upward, the Acceleration 

Z-axis reading is -1.0 g. 

Mounting the Sensor

Mounting the Sensor on a Rod

Slide the 

sensor onto a 

rod and 

secure it with 

the Rod 

Clamp 

Thumbscrew 

as illustrated.

Mounting the Sensor on a PASCO Cart

1. Insert the included Cart/Track Thumbscrew through 

the hole in the sensor labeled Cart.

2. Screw the thumbscrew into the threaded hole on the 

top of the PASCO cart.

Mounting the Sensor on an IDS Bracket

1. Insert one of the included plastic thumbscrews from 

the Force Accessory Bracket through the hole in the 

Force Accessory Bracket (PASCO part CI-6545) as 

shown.
