How to connect Low-Cost USB Data Acquisition with STS-BTA

[ukmaster]

Hello.

I am trying to connect STS-BTA to low-cost USB Data Acqusition.

(STS-BTA: http://www.vernier.com/probes/sts-bta.html, Data Acqusition:http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/14603)

Because I am trying to connect 10 units of STS-BTA and the connecting end of STS-BTA is a kind of a british telephone type,  I am having a trouble to connect to my daq device.

Vernier.com makes SDAQ for STS-BTA connection, but it has only 2 input channel.

Please help me to solve out my problem.

Thank you.

I see a couple options:

Vernier has BTA jacks to breadboard interfaces:

Or just cut the exisiting BTA's off (probably voids any warantee) and use the wires to connect to the screws on the DAQ card, here are the pinouts:

Or get a BTA jack to screw terminal adapter.
