Physics Day at Luna Park - Booking Dataloggers

There are two brands of dataloggers available, Pasco and Vernier. For 2006 they will be available for hire at $30 for a half day and $60 for a full day. Dataloggers can be reserved by emailing Dan O'Keeffe at danok@bigpond.com specifying the brand, the day and whether it is for a half day or full day. The current (as of 1pm, 10th Feb) availability of dataloggers can be downloaded.

The cost will be added to the tax invoice from Luna Park, which schools will receive after the event based on the actual number of students that attended.

To access the data each brand has its own software, which can be downloaded for a free trial.
