=Magnetic Field Sensor =

Description:
====The Magnetic Field Sensor measures a magnetic field near the sensor's tip. It allows for the user to adjust the tip so that they can measure fields that are parallel or perpendicular to the long axis of the sensor. The Magnetic Field Sensor allows the user to do a variety of interesting things having to do with magnetic fields including: ====
 * Measure and study the Earth's magnetic field.
 * Determine the direction of magnetic north.
 * Study the magnetic field near a permanent magnet.
 * Measure the field near a current-carrying wire.
 * Measure the field at the opening of a solenoid.

To use the Magnetic Field Sensor you will need,
 
 * A Vernier Magnetic Field Sensor
 * Vernier Go!Link Cable
 * Computer with Logger Lite software installed



The following is the general procedure for using the Magnetic Field Sensor:

 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Connect the Magnetic Field Sensor to the Go!Link Cable
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Connect the Go!Link Cable to the computer
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Start the Logger Lite software
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The software will identify the Magnetic Field Sensor and load a default datacollection setup.
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">You are ready to collect data
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Press collect and the sensor will begin collecting data and adding it to logger lite

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">
 * <span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The red line represents the data collected.
