Data-Collection Settings

The Sensors menu provides access to detailed setup

controls. Use this menu to set up internal sensors, non-

auto-ID sensors, and wireless sensors. You can also use

this menu to change the data-collection parameters and

adjust sensor-specific settings.

Sensor Setup – Choose Sensor Setup from the

Sensors menu to view sensors connected to the

analog and digital ports. To manually set up non-

auto-ID sensors, tap the field displaying “No

Sensor” for the channel to which your sensor is

connected. Then choose the appropriate sensor from

the list and tap OK.

You can also activate (or deactivate) the internal

sensors from the Sensor Setup dialog box. Select

the check box next to the desired sensor to make

that sensor available for data collection.

Data Collection – Choose Data Collection from the

Sensors menu to set the data-collection mode and

associated parameters. The parameters listed will

depend on the mode selected. Data-collection

modes include Time Based, Events with Entry,

Selected Events, Photogate Timing, Full Spectrum,

Gas Chromatograph, Drop Counting, and Data

Matrix.

o Mode: Time-Based – Time-based data collection

is the default data-collection mode for most

sensors. In this mode, sensor readings are

recorded at regular time intervals.

Adjustable parameters for this mode include the

rate (or interval) and duration of data collection.

The total number of samples to be collected

based on these parameters will be displayed.
