They are Vin low (0 to 5 V) and Vin (-10 to +10 V). Most of the time we use the 0 to 5 volt line. The only exceptions are:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; The voltage probe which comes with LabPro or CBL or CBL 2<br \/>\n&#8211; some microphones<\/p>\n<p>The microphone situation is complex. Most microphones are actually wired so that both lines come into the LabPro. These include: MCA-CBL and MCA-BTA. The ULI microphones are only wired to use the 0 to 5 V line. MPLI microphones are only wired to use the -10 to +10 V line. <\/p>\n<p>Most experiment files used in Logger <i>Pro<\/i> 2.1 are set up to use the 0 to 5 volt line. Therefore, they should work with all microphones except the MPLI Microphones. To use a MPLI microphone, you need to open the file, select sensor setup and change the probe from Microphone to Voltage Probe (-10 to +10 V). Also, you need to change the triggering level, if trigger level is used. Note that the triggering needs to be set at about 0.1 volts for using the MPLI microphone. <\/p>\n<p>In Logger <i>Pro<\/i> 3.x, the situation is pretty much the same as with LP2. To use an MPLI microphone via a CBL-8MC adapter, you need to set the sensor up as a +\/- 10 volt Voltage probe, and not as a microphone.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are two different analog input lines on LabPro.
