CI-73 - READ THIS FIRST
The CI-73 is a set of 73 Snap Circuits ® with special
software that allows you to “see” the electrical signals
in the circuits, just like electronics engineers do using
oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers.
Requirements for your computer:
1. Windows
® computer with internet connection.
2. A microphone input port.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Download our software from www.elenco.com/downloads/CI-
73.zip (Windows ® may give you a warning, but our software is
safe to download). Go to the download and extract the
compressed files. Connect the plug end of our cable to the
microphone input (or microphone/USB
adapter) on your
computer. With our cable connected, open the extracted files
folder and run file
Winscope.exe .
2. Change the default settings for Winscope by selecting
<Options>. Then select <Timing> and change Sampling to
44100 and press <OK>. Then select <Options> again, then
<Colors> - <Y1 Trace> and pick a bright color like pink. Then
select <Options>, then <Save Setup> to save these settings
as your default.
3. Follow the instructions through project PC3 before
moving on to any other circuits, since the main features
of the software are demonstrated.
