Description
The SPARK LX Air Datalogger is PASCO’s slimmed-down all-in-one device for data logging, display, and analysis. Don’t risk damaging your school computer during hands-on experiments! With the LX Air, you control the technology in your classroom. Designed for a wet-lab environment, the LX Air is portable, durable, and splash-proof.
The LX Air can connect to up to 5 Wireless Sensors at once. It is also compatible with the SPARKlink® Air and the 550 Universal Interface. Make sure the devices are connected to the local internet to enjoy automatic software updates and annual student data purging for smooth-sailing in your classroom. The units come ready-to-use with pre-installed data logging software, including SPARKvue®, Chemvue®, Spectrometry, and MatchGraph!
We kept your institution’s cyber-security and IT department in mind when we developed the LX Air as a closed environment. Gone are the days when students sneak onto internet browsing or playing games on school-owned devices. The LX Air eliminates distractions and focuses student attention on collecting data and their science investigation tasks.
Assigned lab homework but need to keep the LX Air at school? It’s easy to export data via USB drives, USB-provided connection cable, Bluetooth sharing or via email.
