Pasport PS-2158 Instruction Sheet

Introduction
The PS-2158 Analog Adapter allows an analog
ScienceWorkshop sensor to be used with a PASPORT inter-
face. Multiple Analog Adapters can be used simultaneously to
support multiple ScienceWorkshop sensors.

When the Analog Adapter is used with an Xplorer or Xplorer GLX
in logging mode (not connected to a computer), the logger records
output voltage from the sensor. A future free upgrade to the GLX
will support calibrated data logging. Visit www.pasco.com for the
latest GLX upgrade.

When the Analog Adapter is used with an Xplorer (PS-2000) in
logging mode, the Xplorer Power Adapter (PS-2530) is recom-
mended (and in some cases required) due to the high current draw
of some ScienceWorkshop sensors.

The first three steps can be performed in any order.
1. Connect an analog ScienceWorkshop sensor to the cable
of the Analog Adapter.
2. Connect the Analog Adapter to a PASPORT interface.
3. Connected the PASPORT interface to a computer.
4. If DataStudio is not running, it will launch automatically.
5. The ScienceWorkshop Analog Sensors list will open
automatically. Select the connected sensor from the list
and click OK.
6. To view and change the sampling rate, gain, and other set-
tings of the sensor and adapter, press the Setup button in
DataStudio's main tool bar; the Experiment Setup win-
dow will open. Refer to DataStudio documentation for
further instructions.
