NeuLog NUL-201 Manual

NeuLog voltage logger sensor
NUL-201
The NeuLog voltage sensor can be used for any science experiment which utilizes
voltage readings. It is used in the fields of Physics, Electronics, Chemistry, Biology,
etc.
The sensor comes pre-calibrated so you can start experimentation right out of the box
using this guide.
Among hundreds of possible experimental subjects that can be studied with the NUL-
201 sensor are: fuel cells, battery chemistry, electrical parallel circuits, electrical series
circuits and electronics.
The voltage sensor's measurement units are:
Volts (V): The SI derived unit for electrical potential difference across two determined
points.
Quick start procedure:
PC or Mac Computer
Materials needed:

NUL-201 Voltage Sensor

USB-200 USB Module

USB to mini USB cable (included with the USB-200 module)
Your voltage sensor needs to be connected to a USB-200 module. The USB-200
module then connects to a computer via a USB to mini-USB cable. Please note that
you cannot plug the voltage sensor directly into the computer.
The browser based application can be downloaded for free at
well as a full application user guide.
Choose "Downloads" on the main menu and then choose "Software and Application".
Procedure:
1. Install the NeuLog application.
2. Connect the USB-200 module to the PC or Mac.

3. Connect the voltage sensor to the USB-200 module (they directly plug together).
Please note that no calibration is required for this sensor.
4. Open the NeuLog application by clicking on the shortcut on the screen.
5. Once a voltage sensor module box appears on the left side of the screen, the
probe has been automatically identified and you can begin experimentation.
If the voltage sensor is not automatically identified, click the "Search for sensors"

change the sensor's settings if need be.
9. Click on the "Experiment setup" icon to change the experiment settings if need
be (experiment duration for example).
10. The voltage sensor will give a live reading in its module box while plugged in.
To run an experiment and collect data, click the "Run experiment" icon.

Materials needed:

NUL-201 Voltage Sensor

WIFI-201 WiFi Module

BAT-200 Battery Module
Your voltage sensor needs to be connected to a WIFI-201 module. The WIFI-201
module will create a closed NeuLog WiFi network which will stream the NeuLog data
to the device of your choosing. Once your device is wirelessly connected to the
NeuLog network, you can run experiments and collect data through a browser of your
choosing.
Procedure:
1. Connect the voltage sensor directly to the left side of a WIFI-201 module (no
wires required).
2. Connect a BAT-200 module to the right side of the WIFI-201 module.
3. Although not required, we recommend plugging the BAT-200 to an outlet using a
www.NeuLog.com as
USB to mini USB charger (such as a typical cell phone charger). The WIFI-201
module will run for 60-90 minutes (depending on the sensor) without being
plugged in.
4. The WIFI-201 module can be powered directly using a mini to USB cord and
plugging it into your computer or a wall charger. Please note this function is only
available on WIFI-201 units with the USB icon on the cover.
