The sensor can also act as a stand-alone PAR datalogger by simply connecting it to any standard 5 V DC USB power plug. Internal memory within the sensor head is capable of storing 10,000 user-specified periodic measurements that can be downloaded as a CSV file to a computer for analysis.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe SQ-420 is used to measure incoming and reflected PPFD around plants and other organisms in outdoor environments, greenhouses, growth chambers, and underwater.\u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space: pre;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan class=\"Apple-tab-span\" style=\"white-space: pre;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eUSB Smart Quantum PAR Sensor\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe versatile SQ-420 can be used two ways - it can be connected directly to a computer for real-time measurements and data logging using the provided software, or it can be connected to a standard USB power source and act as a stand-alone datalogger capable of storing 10,000 periodic measurements internally that can be downloaded to a computer later for analysis.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Data Storage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe sensor has internal data storage capability with the ability to hold up to 10,000 measurements.
