Desktop or Laptop computer with:

1) Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP Vista or Windows 7 Operating Systems

VI.

Accessing the USB Port

Remove the thumbscrew from

the center of the cover and lift off,

the USB port is located inside.

VII. Software Installation:

Global Logger Installation: This software is

for use on Windows based desktop and laptop

computers only. Insert the software installation CD and run the Setup program.

This will install the Global Logger application in the Program Files folder and

automatically put the Global Logger II icon on the desktop.

USB Driver Installation: With the installation CD in the CDROM drive and DC

power applied to the logger, plug the USB cable into the data logger to open the

ADD New Hardware Wizard. The menus that follow will look different for different

operation systems but the procedure is the same. Do not allow the Hardware

Wizard to automatically search for the driver. Instead, specify the location

(CDROM). If a generic driver gets, or has been previously installed, it must be

uninstalled before proceeding by using the Add or Remove Programs section of the

Control Panel. Instead, click the Search External Media box or Specify a Location

box and install the driver from the CDROM. Running the Setup program that installs

the Global Logger software also installs a folder with the driver in it. This location

can also be specified if the CDROM is not available; although, it is recommended

that the driver be installed at the same time the Global Logger is installed.
