ttach the USB Optic Base Station (BASE-U-4) or HOBO Waterproof Shuttle (U-DTW-1) to a USB port on the computer (refer to the hardware manual at www.onsetcomp.com/resources for details).

b. Attach the coupler (COUPLER2-B) to the base station or shuttle.

Gently twist the logger to be sure that it is properly seated in the coupler (it should not turn).
