6.  In a science classroom, there a number of ways this can be achieved! › Competition › Movement › Technology  Today we will concentrate on Technology by introducing you to the GLX!!

7. The GLX!

8.  We will now review the most frequently used buttons on the GLX!

9. Function Keys (F Keys ) Check & Arrow Keys Home Start & Stop Power On/Off (not shown)

10.  When Data Studio is loaded on your computer, a GLX Simulator is part of the package.  The icon will be on your desktop.  Turn on the GLX & plug it into your computer.  Double click the icon & the simulator will open up!  Click on “Show Large Screen.” Now your students can see what buttons to press & what the screen should look like!

11.  If you have a PASPORT sensor, plug it into one of the PASPORT ports on the GLX.  If you have a temperature probe (fast- response or stainless steel), plug it into one of the temperature ports on the side of the GLX.  If you have a voltage probe, plug it into the voltage port on the side of the GLX. Task result: The GLX detects the sensor and adds it to your experiment.

12.  Notice the GLX is “Plug & Play!”  Now, let’s start an experiment!

13. Press to open the Home screen. Use the arrow keys to highlight the Data Files icon and press. Press to open the Files menu. In the Files menu, use the arrow keys to highlight New Files and press. Press to return to the Home screen. You are now ready for any experiment.
