If the latest version of Java (1.4.2) is not installed, the installer will install it. HOBOware™ will inform you if
your Java version is not up to date.
Follow the screen prompts to install the HOBOware™ software.
HOBOware™ should open automatically when the installation is complete (unless the Launch HOBOware™
box is un-checked on the Completing the HOBOware Setup Wizard dialog before clicking Finish). If it
doesn’t, double-click the HOBOware™ icon
on the desktop or Quick Launch menu. Or, from the Start
menu, select Programs, Onset Applications, and HOBOware™.

2.2 Connecting a logger directly to a USB cable
1. Open the HOBOware™ software application.
2. Plug the large end of the USB interface cable into a USB port on the computer.
3. Plug the small end of the USB interface cable into the port on the logger. (Refer to the diagram and
instructions that came with the logger if help is required in help finding the port.)
4. If the logger has never been connected to this computer before, it may take some time for the computer
to detect the new hardware and report that it has connected successfully. One or more messages will
appear, indicating that new hardware has been found, and there may be an audible chime.
NOTE: The computer may prompt to reboot before you can use the logger. It is not necessary
to reboot.
5. When the logger is recognized by HOBOware™, the right side of the status bar at the bottom of the
HOBOware window will update to reflect the number of loggers connected. When the logger is
recognized, it is ready for use.
6. Wait for the status bar to update the number of loggers before continuing.
