According to the user manual, here are the mounting options for the PASCO PS-3223 Wireless 3-Axis Acceleration-Altimeter sensor:
1. **PASCO Carts:** Align one of the holes in the sensor casing with a threaded hole in the accessory tray of the cart. Fasten with the included thumbscrew. Pay attention to the direction of the x-axis of the sensor when mounting.
2. **Hook and Loop Strap:** Insert each end of the strap through the slots between the sensor and the casing. Use the strap to mount the sensor to an object such as a human arm. Two indentations in the casing accommodate mounting to a rod.
3. **Rotating Platform:** Secure the sensor to the track of the rotating platform using the thumbscrew and square nut included with the square mass. Pay attention to the direction of the x and y axes of the sensor when mounting.
4. **Truss Set Member:** Use the threaded hole on the sensor casing to attach the sensor to a PASCO Truss Set Member. Other objects can be attached to the sensor using 6-32 screws.
5. **String or Rubber Band:** Tie a string to the center mounting hole in the sensor casing to measure centripetal acceleration. Use a rubber band to launch the sensor for exploring projectile motion.
By following these instructions, users can effectively mount the PASCO PS-3223 sensor to different objects for data collection in various experiments and activities.
