M ONITORING LIVE DATA
Connecting a voltage probe
• Plug the included voltage probe into the voltage port on the top of the
SPARK.
Monitoring live data
Live data from all connected sensors are displayed whenever the Home screen
is open.
The Home screen is the first screen that appears when the SPARK has been
turned on and booted up.
If the Home screen is not visible, touch the Home button to return to the Home
screen.
Moving on from the Home screen
With the Home screen displayed, you are ready to move into a SPARKlab. A
SPARKlab is a multi-page environment where your science investigation takes
place.
Complete one of the following tasks to open an embedded SPARKlab, show a
measurement in a SPARKlab, or build a custom SPARKlab.
Opening a SPARKlab
The SPARK Science Learning System includes over 60 embedded SPARKlabs.
Complete these steps to open a SPARKlab:
1. Connect the sensors required for the SPARKlab that you wish to do.
2. If there are unneeded sensors connected, disconnect them.
3. In the Home screen, touch Open.
A list of folders appears.
4. Touch the folder corresponding your subject area.
5. If necessary, touch a subfolder.
6. Touch the SPARKlab that you would like to open.
