Driver/Detector Coils

(for use with the WA-9611 Sonometer)

Introduction

The PASCO Model WA-9613 Driver/Detector Coils are

designed to be used with PASCO’s Model WA-9611

Sonometer. The Driver Coil, when powered by a function

generator (such as PASCO Models PI-9598 Student

Function Generator or PI-9587B Digital Function Gen-

erator) capable of delivering up to 0.5 ampere, induces

vibrations in the steel wires of the Sonometer. The ampli-

tude and frequency of the vibrations are determined by

the output of the function generator. The Detector Coil

converts the wire vibrations into an electronic signal that

can be viewed on an oscilloscope, producing a trace that

shows the motion of the wire at the position of the Detec-

tor Coil.

You can use a PASCO Computer Interface such as the

CI-6500 for DOS-compatible computers or the AI-6501

for Apple® II computers in place of the oscilloscope.

You can use a PASCO Computer Interface such as the

CI-6550 for Macintosh® computers or the CI-6565 for

Windows™-compatible computers with a PASCO Power

Amplifier in place of both the oscilloscope and the func-

tion generator.

BNC adapter

Equipment

The Driver/Detector Coils come with a BNC adapter.

You can use the BNC adapter and a CI-6503 Voltage

Sensor to connect the Detector Coil to the CI-6550 or CI-

6565 Computer Interface.

Additional Equipment

• WA-9611 Sonometer

Recommended Equipment

• CI-6550 or CI-6565 Computer Interface and a

Power Amplifier (CI-6552)

• Series 6500 Computer Interface, CI-6508 Input

Adapter Box, and a function generator capable of

producing 0.5 A

• dual trace oscilloscope and a function generator

capable of producing 0.5 A

Optional Equipment (for use with function generator)

• banana plug patch cords and BNC-to-dual banana

adapter (for connecting the function generator to

the BNC connector on an oscilloscope)
