2. Connect the USB end of the interface cable into an open USB port on the computer.
3. Place the data logger into the docking station (IFC400 or IFC406).
4. The data logger will automatically appear under Connected Devices within the software.
5. For most applications, select Custom Start from the menu bar and choose the desired start method, reading rate and other parameters appropriate for the data logging application and click Start. (Quick Start applies the most recent custom start options, Batch Start is used for managing multiple loggers at once, Real Time Start stores the dataset as it records while connected to the logger.)
6. The status of the device will change to Running or Waiting to Start, depending upon your start method.
7. Disconnect the data logger from the interface cable and place it in the environment to measure.

Note: The device will stop recording data when the end of memory is reached or the device is stopped, unless user selectable memory wrap is enabled. At this point the device cannot be restarted until it has been re- armed by the computer.

seal and prevent liquid from entering the inside of the device. Please refer to the application note “O-Rings 101:
Protecting Your Data”, found at madgetech.com, for information on how to prevent O-ring failure.
