#PASCO CAPSTONE LOG AXIS HOW TO#
It comes with 17 experiment guides, which make use of wireless and other sensors and provide guidance on how to set up and run data collection in familiar contexts, such as diffusion, fermentation and calorimetry. (Chromebooks and laptops require an additional BLE dongle, costing around £ 10, enabling the laptop to access BLE).įunctions: The SPARKvue app is used to collect, configure and display data. Most of this review was conducted using an iPad mini and iOS smartphone with SPARKvue 2.6.0. Although the file size is large (over 170 Mb), installation is straightforward and presented no problems when tested with phones, tablets and a Chromebook.

Installation: SPARKvue is available as a free download for iOS, Android and Chromebook, and available at low cost for Windows and OSX devices. Pasco also provides an effective personal support service for technical issues. Support Each sensor comes with a sheet explaining how to get started, and contains a link to the sensor-specific online Reference Guides.There are video guides available via the Pascoscientific YouTube channel for most wireless sensors: temperature, pH, pressure, force – acceleration, voltage and Smart Cart. The benefit of BLE for learning science is that sensors can connect independently of a wireless network, allowing them to be used both indoors and outdoors. This limits the distance between sensor and display screen to a quoted maximum of 10 metres, which was found to be accurate when measured outdoors.

all those with ‘wireless’ in their names) can also collect data remotely for downloading later.Ĭonnectivity: The sensors use low energy Bluetooth (BLE) to connect to other devices. Remote recording: All the sensors reviewed can display measured values in ‘real time’ on the screen of a paired device. Power is turned off automatically if not in use.įixing: Wireless pressure, light and force – acceleration sensors each have attachments for fixing to standard laboratory boss / clamp fittings. Each sensor uses LEDs to indicate battery or charge status and Bluetooth connection status. Rechargeable batteries have an ‘expected life of 3-4 months’ usage on a single charge with normal use’, or 11-70 hours of continuous use depending on sample rate chosen.Ĭontrols: Power on/off switches are small and recessed to avoid accidental operation. Pasco suggests that the battery should last for a year in normal use. The impression given is that these are solid, well-made devices that will easily withstand the rigours of classroom use.īattery replacement: Battery access is either via a cover that unscrews using a coin, or, in the case of the light sensor, a draw-and-catch mechanism. Inc USB cable and hook, rubber pad and magnetic bumperĪcceleration: X, Y, Z planes and resultant up to +/- 16 g (g =9.8 m/s 2)Ĭonstruction: The sensors are made of rigid white plastic, and held together by tamper-proof screws.

The sensors link to SMARTvue software, which can be installed at no cost on iOS, Android and Google devices. Pasco has introduced a range of white wireless sensors to provide a mobile and cable-free solution, particularly useful for schools making use of mobile technology such as tablets, smartphones and Chromebooks.
