Care of LabQuest

Use LabQuest with a Computer

labQuest battery

Use only the supplied AC adapter to charge the LabQuest battery. A full charge will take eight hours. Battery life will
depend on the sensors used, but typically you can expect to use a LabQuest a full school day without recharging. the
battery cannot be overcharged, and can be safely recharged after a partial discharge. the LabQuest screen will dim
after a few minutes of no use, even during data collection.

labQuest updates and emulator

Software updates for LabQuest, as they are released, will be available at www.vernier.com/labquest/updates
A computer-based LabQuest emulator will be available in early 2008 at the same UrL. the emulator is intended
for class instruction in LabQuest use, or when a projected version of LabQuest is desired.

labQuest Case and Screen

LabQuest is water and shock resistant. Do not submerge in liquids. Wipe clean with a slightly damp cloth. if
necessary, lightly wipe the screen with a soft cotton cloth slightly dampened with ethanol. Use no other solvents.
