Your current sensor needs to be connected to a 900- 268 module. The 900-268 module will create a closed Edu-Logger WiFi network which will stream the Edu- Logger data to the device of your choosing. Once your device is wirelessly connected to the Edu-Logger network you can run experiments and collect data through a browser of your choosing.

The Edu-Logger current sensor houses a shunt resistor and an amplifier. The circuit's current passes through the shunt resistor and its electric potential is measured using a very fast, high input impedance differential operational amplifier with protected inputs.
