Introduction

The P ASCO UI-51 10 Voltage Probe, Shrouded is designed to work with the P ASCO 850 Universal Interface. The

1.2 meter (m) cable has an eight pin DIN plug at one end and two shrouded, stackable banana plugs at the other
end. The cable comes with two safety alligator clips that work with shrouded or unshrouded banana plugs. Stu­dents can measure voltage using a Shrouded Voltage Probe and a compatible PASCO interface such as the 850
Universal Interface with PASCO data acquisition software such as PASCO Capstone. With a PASCO PS-2158
Analog Adapter*, the Shrouded Voltage Probe could also be used with the SPARK Science Learning System* or
a data logger such as the Xplorer GLX*.

About the Shrouded Voltage Probe

The PASCO UI-5110 Shrouded Voltage Probe connects to an eight pin DIN jack such as the ANALOG INPUT
ports on the 850 Universal Interface. The probe has a built in automiatic identification (“auto ID”) chip. When
connected to the 850 Universal Interface, the PASCO Capstone software automatically determines that the probe
has been plugged in.

Note that the small indent on one side of the metal part of the DIN plug should face
up when the probe is plugged into the interface. The Shrouded Voltage Probe mea­sures direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC).

The UI-5218 Extension Cable is 1.8 meters long with an eight pin male DIN plug at
one end and an eight pin female DIN plug at the other end. Use one to extend the distance that the Shrouded Volt­age Probe can reach.

Probe Setup

1. Connect the Shrouded Voltage Probe to a compatible PASCO interface.

2. If you will be using a computer, connect the interface to the computer’s USB

port.
