NeuLog USB module
USB-200
The NeuLog USB module is the easiest way to connect the entire NeuLog sensor line
and any NeuLog accessory modules (WiFi, or RF) to any smart device that has a USB
port.
The USB module is the bridge between the sensor's hardware and your smart
device's hardware. By supplying power to sensors from the smart device it's plugged
into and acting as an information network, measurements collected from connected
sensors are rapidly streamed in real time from the NeuLog sensors directly into the
NeuLog software to give live graphic readouts.
Connection to smart devices (computers and tablets) is done through a standard USB
to mini USB connection cable which is included in the package. The only requirement
is that your smart device has a USB port.
Using the NeuLog USB module:
As with all NeuLog devices, using the USB module is very quick and easy. Because
the USB module is so versatile, there are many possibilities for its usage.
Materials needed:

USB usage with sensors:
Using the USB module with any NeuLog sensors (up to 50) plugged directly into it is
the easiest and most straightforward way to collect data.
1.
Download the completely free NeuLog software from
http://www.neulog.com/Download/SoftwareandApplication.aspx
2.
Connect the mini USB end of the included cable into the USB module.
3.
Connect the regular USB end of the included cable into any open USB port
on the smart device of which you will be using.

4.
Next, connect any NeuLog sensors (up to 50) which you desire to use for
this experiment directly into the left side of the USB module.
Note: No cables are required to plug modules and sensors together. They
plug directly into eachother.
5.
Open the NeuLog software on your smart device.
automatically detect all connected sensors. If you wish to connect more
sensors you can simply click the "Search For Sensors" button at any time.
6.
Your sensors are now connected and you can begin collecting data!
USB with RF modules:
Using NeuLog RF modules with a USB module and sensors provides a much more
flexible system in which students can collect data from anywhere within 20 meters of
their lab bench while wirelessly streaming data in realtime to the NeuLog software at
their workstation.
Once you have paired two RF communication modules to the same RF ID number (1
through 9) you can begin connecting Neulog modules and sensors together. Again it
may be easiest to imagine the RF communication modules as a long cable between
the sensor and the USB module.
1.
Connect the USB module into a smart device using the included USB to
mini USB cable.
2.
Connect one of the paired RF modules to the left side of the USB module.
3.
Separately, connect the second RF module into the left side of a charged
battery module. Note: press and hold the button on the front of the battery
module: if a light comes on, than the battery has sufficient power. If no light
comes on, than you must charge the battery some more.
4.
Connect whichever sensors you wish to use into the left side of the second
RF module (which is connected into the battery). Note: You can conduct
experiments with up to 5 NeuLog sensors using the RF modules.
5.
Open the NeuLog software, it will automatically search for sensors.
6.
Once your sensors are detected you are ready to begin collecting data
wirelessly!
