Data Collection Software
Measurements from the sensor are recorded and displayed using PASCO software such as SPARKvue or PASCO
Capstone. SPARKvue allows the sensor to work with a computer or a mobile device such as a tablet, datalogger,
or smart-phone when the sensor is connected. PASCO Capstone will work on a PC or Mac.
See the PASCO web site at www.pasco.com/software for help in selecting the right PASCO software and to check
for the latest versions.

several minutes if not connected. To turn the sensor off, press and hold the Power Button for a moment until the
Battery LED shines red. Release the Power Button and the Bluetooth LED stops blinking.
Hardware Set-Up
Mounting the Wireless Smart Gate to a Pulley Mounting Rod
A Pulley Mounting Rod (SA-9343) fits the 1/4-20 threaded
hole that is on the side of the Wireless Smart Gate opposite
to the swivel rod clamp.
The swivel rod clamp and thumbscrew allows the Wireless
Smart Gate to be mounted on a 0.63 cm (1/4 in.) diameter
rod (such as the ME-9805 Photogate Stand).
The open space for the Wireless Smart Gate is 7.2 cm
(width) by 4.0 cm (depth). Remember, the Laser Detector
Port (Port 4) allows the measurement of the motion of
larger objects when used with a laser.
