o 

 – This mode is 

primarily used for field work. It provides 
a way to collect data referenced to two 
parameters such as the locations of the 
sampling sites and the dates on which 
they were sampled. It also allows you to 
collect data from an unlimited number of 
sensors by permitting sensors to be 
swapped in and out of LabQuest during 
data collection. For more detailed 
information, see 

 

 



 

 – Selecting WDSS Setup from the 

Sensors menu allows you to scan for, select, and 
configure Wireless Dynamics Sensor Systems.  

You can then choose to scan for any available 
WDSS devices. This scan may take some tens of 
seconds, and may have to be repeated several 
times to find all available WDSS units.  

 
A list of detected WDSS is displayed. Tap to 
select the desired WDSS by name and tap OK. 
Next, select which of the five sensor channels to 
be used (and/or scan for additional WDSS units, 
or disconnect from a connected unit). Tap OK to 
enable sensors.  
 
Once sensors are enabled, they can be controlled 
like other sensors in terms of data collection rate 
and duration. 
 
Note: WDSS cannot be set up for remote data collection using LabQuest. Use Logger Pro 
on a computer to set up WDSS for remote use. 

 



 

 – In some cases, you may have the option to display the sensor data in 

another set of units. Choosing Change Units from the Sensors menu allows you to select 
a different set of units. Choosing a new unit will change all existing runs for that sensor 
to the new unit, as well as any subsequent runs. If this feature is grayed-out in the menu, 
then the data for that particular sensor cannot be displayed in another set of units. 

 



 

 – Most sensors do not need to be calibrated, as a factory calibration for that 

sensor is read from the sensor when LabQuest identifies it. However, some sensors do 
require calibration and you will use the Calibrate tool accessible from the Sensors menu. 
In such cases, follow the detailed calibration instructions provided in the booklet included 
with the sensor. Booklets are also available online at:
