Step 2: Connect the Sensor

Connect a sensor or sensors to a compatible input on the interface.

Sensors can be divided into two basic types: analog and digital.

Analog sensors include Temperature Probes, pH sensors, and Force Sensors. Up to four analog sensors can be connected to LabQuest, LabQuest Mini, or LabPro. One analog sensor can be connected to a Go! Link. The analog ports accept British Telecom-style plugs with a right-hand connector.

Digital sensors include Motion Detectors, Radiation Monitors, and Photogates. The digital ports accept British Telecom-style plugs with a left-hand connector.

If your sensors are not auto-ID, you will need to manually set up your sensors.
