There are four possible explanations:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. It was manufactured before 2008, which is when it became auto-id.<\/li>\n
  2. If you are trying to use a Drop Counter with a LabPro, the Drop Counter will not auto-id. This is because the firmware in the LabPro pre-dates the digital auto-id function, and is true for all Drop Counters.<\/li>\n
  3. The Drop Counter does auto-id properly with LabQuest or LabQuest Mini; however, it may be necessary to click File, New to orient the axes properly.<\/li>\n
  4. A bad cable between the drop counter and the interface can cause Auto-ID to fail. If you have multiple units, methodically switch sensors, cables,\u00a0 and interface to be certain where the problem is.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In Logger Pro<\/i>, all of these problems are easily fixed by opening an experiment file from the “Probes and Sensors” folder that uses the Drop Counter.<\/p>\n

    If the Drop Counter does not auto-id it will not work directly with Graphical Analysis. Data may be read through a LabQuest 2 or LabQuest 3 using Data Sharing.\u00a0<\/p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
