Some Go Direct devices, such as Go Direct®<\/sup> Soil Moisture Sensor<\/a> (GDX-SM<\/nobr>) and Go Direct®<\/sup> Salinity Sensor<\/a> (GDX-SAL<\/nobr>) have a single on-board sensor, whereas Go Direct®<\/sup> Acceleration Sensor<\/a> (GDX-ACC<\/nobr>) has a 3-axis acceleration sensor with two acceleration ranges, plus an altimeter, a 3-axis gyroscope, and a sensor channel which measures the angle of the sensor\u2019s long axis. Go Direct®<\/sup> Weather System<\/a> (GDX-WTHR<\/nobr>) has sensor channels used to measure ambient temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind chill, dew point, barometric pressure, and more. When configuring a remote data logging experiment, it is possible to collect data from one, or multiple, sensor channels.<\/p>\n

Steps to configure multiple channels for a remote data logging experiment<\/h3>\n

  1. Launch Graphical Analysis and connect your Go Direct sensor.
    For detailed instructions for connecting the sensor to the Graphical Analysis app, refer to     Getting Started with Go Direct Sensors<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
