In the Summer 2007, we standardized the experiment numbers across the computer, calculator, LabQuest, and Palm versions of the labs and renamed the books from “… with Computers or Palm” to “… with Vernier.”* In Logger Pro 3.6 and newer, the files in the experiment folders are organized based on the “… with Vernier” books. For example, in Logger Pro 3.6 and newer, you will find “Physics with Vernier” folder instead of a “Physics with Computers” folder.

As a result, the experiment file numbers in Logger Pro 3.5 and earlier do not match up with the new books and the Logger Pro 3.6 and newer files do not match the old versions of the book. Also, if you are using LabQuest and have older versions of the books, the numbers will not match the lab instructions embedded in LabQuest.

If you have an older version of the book and want the new edition, contact us and we can send you a CD upgrade at no charge. If you need a new printed copy, it can be purchased as Physics with Vernier (PWV). To see a complete list of our curriculum, visit
