Real Time Data-logging

Sensor values can be sent from DataMeter via cable to a computer to display

and record results live, 'as it happens'. When used in this way DataMeter is an

interface, linking sensors to your computer.

You will need a computer loaded with suitable software and a LogIT link cable. As

there are many different computers and software we cannot be to specific in this

manual - please refer to the instructions supplied with your software for detailed

information.

serial

socket

You need a special LogIT to computer link cable which is either supplied with your

DataMeter pack or available separately.

This plugs into the serial socket on the computer - usually marked COM, RS232 or

serial - your software instructions will tell you which one to use.

When you have loaded the software you should then select the option to start

real time or As It Happens logging. Some independent software such as Insight or

Investigate also needs you to set which data logger you have - here you must

select DataMeter (not LogIT SL). The DataMeter display should say 'Computer link

on' and you start to see data from your sensors appear live on the computer

screen.

If this does not work double check cables and connections and check any fault

finding information supplied with your software.

DataMeter in Education

DataMeter is a versatile tool designed for general school and college use and all

departments can benefit from its portability, versatility and ease of use.

As well as standard experiments like cooling curves, there are many other

demonstrations and investigations that suddenly become practical and exciting,

which take minimal setting up but offer maximum educational value.

As an example of this, you can try a classic (but

previously difficult to set up) physics demonstration of

simple harmonic motion. You will need a Microsense

Movement & Position Sensor, a piece of piano wire

and a pendulum bob as shown - you do not need

the computer at this point. Start the pendulum

swinging and press the green button to start

autologging. For best results only log for a few

seconds - this will show the best resolution using

AutoLog. When you download the data to your

computer you should clearly see the constant

frequency but decaying amplitude.

It is beyond the scope of this instruction manual to detail experiments which fit

precise requirements of the education curriculum. However there are resources

available which were either written for or can be applied to using DataMeter in

education. You will also find some on our web site at www.dcpmicro.com

Here is a selection:

•LogIT Teaching File

Published by the designers of LogIT, this file contains a wide range of information

and copyable resources including details of sensors and software as well as

Worksheets and Activity reports.

•Datalogging at Key Stage 4

Designed to help teachers develop datalogging Information Technology

courses at Key stage 4/GCSE of the UK National Curriculum and highlights ways in

which LogIT can be used to meet the requirements of exam syllabuses.

•Datalogging and Control

The book sets out to illustrate the many aspects of science which can be

explored with sensors. It is a practical guide with many ideas showing what data

logging & control is & where it fits into your work.

•IT in Science

Available in Secondary or Primary versions the books show the many ways that

you can use computers to help teach science. As well as sensing it covers

activities with word processors, databases etc.
