Import from LabPro/CBL 2 with a TI Connectivity Cable

You can transfer data lists directly from the LabPro and CBL 2 interfaces via a TI Connectivity Cable. Those data lists will be from the most recent data collection run. The data will be added to a data column, graphed on the screen, and ready for further analysis. Saved (or archived) experiments in LabPro can also be imported. Note: This function is useful for interfaces which have been used for remote data collection.

Importing with a TI Connectivity Cable

  1. Connect the TI Connectivity Cable to a free serial or USB port of the computer and to the LabPro or CBL 2.
  2. Make certain that the LabPro or CBL 2 has power.
  3. With Logger Pro running, choose Import From > TI Device... from the File menu or click . Note: Choosing Import will terminate the ongoing LabPro data collection.
  4. Logger Pro will identify your interface and display the data within.
  5. Highlight the lists and/or saved experiments you want to import.
  6. Click OK. The lists or saved experiments will added to a data table.

Notes

Port/Cable: It is important to correctly identify the port and type of cable being used so that Logger Pro can successfully communicate with the interface. If the TI Connectivity Cable is connected to a different serial or USB port, you can choose the port from the drop-down menu.

Status: The interface will be detected automatically. Click Refresh Catalog if a new interface has been connected.

Choose Lists to Import: The LabPro/CBL 2 catalog will be listed. Highlight the list(s) you wish to import into the current page and Click OK.

You can name and save your experiments in LabPro's memory using the DataMate program. Refer to the Beyond DataMate Guidebook (available online) for instructions on how do this. If you want to import saved experiments, select Scan for Saved Experiments to get a listing of archived experiments in LabPro.
