The B1100-2 uses a high precision digital sensor that makes the B1100-2 suitable for altitude measurements, vertical velocity indication, and weather monitoring. Data is recorded at a user selectable rate ranging between 20 Hz to one sample per hour. The B1100-2 can be programmed to start and stop at specific times each day. When connected via the USB to a personal computer, the B1100-2 appears as a standard mass storage device containing the comma delimited data files and user setup files. The commercial standard "AA" battery provides extended life operation suitable to long term data acquisition applications.
