The EJS Temperature Measurement with Phidget collects data from a Phidget 1048 Temperature Sensor and Thermocouple. The Phdiget driver must be installed. The instructors are for an introductory physics lab on using computer controls transducers.  Once Ejs is installed, right-clicking within the plot and selecting "Open Ejs Model" from the pop-up menu item allows for editing of the model and, in particular, editing the serial number of the Hardware (as described in the lab instructions).

The Temperature Measurement model was created using the Easy Java Simulations (Ejs) modeling tool.  It is distributed as a ready-to-run (compiled) Java archive.  Double clicking the ejs_PhidgetTemperatureExample.jar file will run the program if Java is installed.  Ejs is a part of the Open Source Physics Project and is designed to make it easier to access, modify, and generate computer models.
