Setup Procedure
Science Workshop Setup
➀
Connect the Current Sensor to any differential input
analog channel on the computer interface box with
interface cable (Figure 1a),
or
insert the DIN plug of the Current Sensor into the
jack of any differential input analog channel on the
computer interface box (Figure 1b).
➄
Additional display windows can be opened by
following the procedure in step 4.
➂ Select "Current Sensor" from the drop-down menu
(Figure 3).
➃ Open a display window, such as the Digits display, by
dragging and dropping the appropriate display icon to
the Current Sensor icon (Figure 4).
