Specifying the Data Collection Method

With a CBL 2/CBL or CBR, you can collect data in one of three
ways:

GAUGE

(bar or meter),

DATA LOGGER

(a Temp-Time,

Light-Time, Volt-Time, or Sonic-Time graph), or

RANGER

,

which runs the

RANGER

program, the built-in CBR data

collection program.

CBL 2/CBL and CBR differ in that CBL 2/CBL allows you to
collect data using one of four different probes: Temperature,
Light, Volt, or Sonic. CBR collects data using only the Sonic
probe. You can find more information on CBL 2/CBL and CBR
in their user manuals.
