The two options for starting a remote data logging experiment are Manually and On a Triggering Event. When On a Triggering Event is selected, the Go Direct sensor waits for a trigger thresholdcondition to be met before recording data. It is always a...
Some Go Direct devices, such as Go Direct® Soil Moisture Sensor (GDX-SM) and Go Direct® Salinity Sensor (GDX-SAL) have a single on-board sensor, whereas Go Direct® Acceleration Sensor (GDX-ACC) has a 3-axis acceleration sensor with two a...
In March, 2025, the remote data logging feature was added to select new models of Go Direct sensors, including:
Go Direct® Acceleration Sensor (GDX-ACC)
Go Direct® Salinity Sensor (GDX-SAL)
Go Direct® Soil Moisture Sensor (GDX...
It is difficult to provide a table of battery life for the different Go Direct sensors, due to factors such as the age of the battery, the charge of the battery, and the ambient temperature. Some sensors draw more power and some Go Direct devices ha...
Unfortunately, no. Remote data logging is a feature only available on select new models of Go Direct devices. Older models of the sensors cannot be updated to support data logging.
Sensors with this capability are labeled with a Remote Data Logg...
Remote data logging is a feature that allows select models of Go Direct sensors to store data directly to their memory. The Vernier Graphical Analysis app (Basic or Pro) is used to both configure the device for the experiment, and to retrieve the da...
