This user manual provides instructions for charging, connecting via Bluetooth or USB, and using the PASCO PS-3209 Wireless Weather Sensor with GPS.
The PASCO Wireless Weather Sensor with GPS (PS-3209) is a durable, weather-resistant instrument designed to measure wind speed, temperature, humidity, pressure, illuminance, UV index, solar irradiance, and more. It features an integrated GPS module for reporting latitude, longitude, altitude, and velocity. The sensor connects wirelessly via Bluetooth or through a micro USB cable to computing devices running PASCO Capstone or SPARKvue software.
