Manually Setting up a Sensor
When using a non Auto-ID sensor, it is necessary to set up the sensor manually
before data can be collected. The procedure for setting up a sensor is slightly
different depending on the type of connector found on the sensor. Analog sensors
(most sensors) connect to one of the analog ports found on the left side of the
LabPro or CBL 2, or to the EasyLink. Digital sensors (photogates and drop
counters) connect to the digital ports found on the right side of the LabPro or
CBL 2. Follow the appropriate directions below to manually set up a sensor.
