CLAB with CASIO Graphic Calculators CLAB can be used with CASIO Graphic Calculators on which the E-CON software is installed, such as CASIO fx-CG Series, fx-9860GII Series or ClassPad II (fx-CP400). www.cma-science.nl

CLAB with CASIO Graphic Calculators When connected to a calculator CLAB is controlled by the E-CON software running on the calculator. The collected data are transferred to the calculator and the measurement can be followed and analyzed on the calculator. E-CON for ClassPad II and CG-20 *You can also create your own basic programs to control C-Lab www.cma-science.nl

E-Con 3 In the Main-Window you are able to setup the C-Lab. There is also an opportunity to convert programs for older Calculators and Interfaces. q (SET) Setup the C-Lab (Sensor, Time, Interval,…) r (START) Start the logging y (GRAPH) Setup and show the graph www.cma-science.nl

Fast Setup with „Wizard“ q Setup Now you can select: Wizard q Advanced (Detailed Setup) w Select a sensor Setup the total time of logging Save your setup (w) or… …start the logging (q)

Detailed Setup q Setup Choose the „Advanced Setup“ (w), for a detailed setup Channel Select the sensors and channels Sample Interval, Time and mode Trigger Select the trigger how to start logging Graph Setup the graphic window Custom Probe Create own sensors Initialize Reset E-CON3

Setup Channel Channel Up to three sensors can be used simoultanously. If you use a single sensor please use channel 1. www.cma-science.nl

Setup Sample Sample Mode: The mode influences the interval Interval: Time between two values Number: Amount of values www.cma-science.nl

Evaluation with the „Statistic“ app – CG-20 After logging you´ll see the graph: I for more options w (LMEM) to save values as lists The data is now copied into lists, and are accessible via the Statistic app of the CG-20 www.cma-science.nl

Evaluation with Spreadsheet After export as lists (LMEM) you also have the possibility to import lists in the „Spreadsheet“-App of the CG-20. F6 – and then - RECALL F1 – LIST Choose the List # www.cma-science.nl

Export as .csv You find a „csv“ – option in the Spreadsheet application to export to your desktop PC. www.cma-science.nl
