Connecting a sensor through a Digital Adapter or Photogate Port
The Digital Adapter (PASCO part PS-2159) allows digital switch-type sensors such as
photogates and smart pulleys to be connected to a PASPORT interface and used with
SPARKvue. It also allows the use of a ScienceWorkshop Motion Sensor (CI-6742A) or
Rotary Motion Sensor (CI-6538).
