Features:

Data Logging Capability - The 500 ScienceWorkshop

Interface is a portable datalogger for taking measurements

in the laboratory or field. To record data, all you need is the

interface and a sensor. Students can set up an experiment

using the 500 interface, disconnect the computer to collect

data at their lab table or out of the classroom, and then

reconnect the interface to the computer to upload data for

analysis inside DataStudio.

50 KB Storage Buffer - The interface uses a 50 KB storage

buffer to store multiple data runs and experiment setup

information.

Cross-platform Compatible - Logged data will open on

either a Macintosh or Windows-compatible computer. The

interface stores the ScienceWorkshop sensor and data display

information so it knows what experiment setup to open.

Portability and Plug-in - You can carry the interface in the

field or plug the interface into your computer. The interface

operates on 4 “AA” cell batteries or a 9 V AC adapter.
