NEULOG PHOTO GATE SENSOR GUIDE
The sensor is pre-calibrated at the factory. The built-in software in the
logger can be upgraded for free at any time using the provided firmware
update.
The NeuLog photo gate sensor uses an infrared beam to determine when an
object has passed through the photo gate. Every point that there is a break
in the infrared beam, a 1 is registered in the program. The infrared detector
is very sensitive to rapid fluctuations in infrared light which allows for both
very slow and very quick objects to pass through the photo gate. The
NeuLog software can calculate velocities and accelerations based on the
record of 1’s and 0’s as well as the experimental inputs.
Maintenance and storage:
Never submerge the NeuLog plastic body in any liquid.
Do not allow liquid into the photo gate sensor’s body.
After use, gently wipe away any foreign material from the photo
gate sensor.
Store in a box at room temperature out of direct sunlight.
