USB-Accelerometer 3-axis Self Recording Accelerometer X6-1A
General
We revised and improved the successful X6-1 to create the new X6-1A USB Accelerometer. The X6-1A implements a low noise 12-bit digital 3-axis accelerometer with user selectable sample rates up to 160Hz. This simple device stores acceleration (movement) on the device for later viewing and analysis. Just plug it into any USB host and the X6-1A mounts as a USB Mass Storage Device (like a USB flash drive). Data is stored in plain text Comma Separated Values (.csv) files, ready to be imported into any spreadsheet, word processor, or end user application. The X6-1A options are set up easily using a simple text based configuration file.
In Stock. Usually ships in 24 hours.
