You are now ready to view the data in graphical form. Unwrap your container and reconnect the MicroLog to the computer communication cable. Make sure the computer communication cable is still connected to the computer.
Reopen the MicroLog software.
To download the data from the MicroLog, click on the AppleWorks or Excel button displayed in the software. AppleWorks or Excel will automatically open and the data will be transferred. It may take several seconds until all data is downloaded. The data will include the internal (temperature and percent humidity) readings.
As you observe the data is there a pattern of increasing or decreasing temperature readings inside your container? By using and manipulating the AppleWorks or Excel spreadsheet, you will be able to look more closely at the data and determine certain relationships.
Create a line graph that displays air temperature.
How did the air temperature inside your container change with the different covers? Describe your thoughts on the Probe Discussion Board.
