Monitor the direction strength of a magnetic field at a particular location. Alerts you when a selected value is reached using visual &/or sound &/or vibration. Synchronizes to a specific signal (x, y, z or magnitude) in 4 different modes: falling edge, rising edge, low state and high state. Records the measurements from 100 to 10000 shots, plot, read and can be sent by Email as a CSV type. Several measure acquirements time base from 0.1 measure/second to 10 measures/second. Display the measurements in µTesla or mGauss unit. Automatic resizing screen. Extremely light weight app. Nota: It is not suitable for iPod which doesn’t have embedded magnetic field sensors. 监测特定位置的磁场的方向强度。 使用视觉和/或声音和/或振动达到所选值时提醒您。 以4种不同的模式同步到特定信号(x,y,z或幅度):下降沿,上升沿,低状态和高状态。 将测量记录从100到10000记录,绘制,读取,并可以通过电子邮件发送为CSV类型。 几个测量时间基准从0.1测量/秒到10次/秒。 以μTesla或mGauss单位显示测量值。 自动调整大小的屏幕。 翻译为8种不同的语言:英文,法文,西班牙文,意大利文,葡萄牙文,德文,俄文和简体中文。 极轻的应用程序 注意事项:不适用于没有嵌入式磁场传感器的iPod。 监测特定位置的磁场的方向强度。 使用视觉和/或声音和/或振动达到所选值时提醒您。 以4种不同的模式同步到特定信号(x,y,z或幅度):下降沿,上升沿,低状态和高状态。 将测量记录从100到10000记录,绘制,读取,并可以通过电子邮件发送为CSV类型。 几个测量时间基准从0.1测量/秒到10次/秒。 以μTesla或mGauss单位显示测量值。 自动调整大小的屏幕。 极轻的应用程序 注意事项:不适用于没有嵌入式磁场传感器的iPod。 Surveille la force directionnelle d'un champ magnétique à un endroit particulier.

About

Date Countdown Widget

Features
Read full description

Thanks to this application (and the other Widget apps from PacoLabs), you can now customize the Home screen and the Today view of your device, by adding custom widgets for some specific purposes. From anywhere in your device, you'll have access to your own information and actions. Each Date Countdown widget allows to display the number of years / months / days remaining until a given target date. It is also possible to display the number of days elapsed since a given date. See how many days you have left until your birthday, or how long ago an important event in your life happened! A custom name can be displayed and the look can be customized. Those Widgets are compatible with the new iOS 14 Home Screen Widgets. The application is really easy to use and is adapted to the fresh look of your device. Dark mode of iOS13 is supported. In Today view: You can add as many widgets as you want and they will be displayed in up to 3 different lists. Those same lists will be available in the Today view and in the application (although it is possible, if you want, to hide some widgets in the Today view). To avoid overloading the Today view, when too many widgets are displayed, an intuitive control will allow you to navigate from one widget to another. Even if the main purpose of the app is to view the widgets in the Today view, it can also be very handy to view them directly in the application (a long press on a widget in the Today view will open it directly in the main application).
