To connect the HOBO UA-003-64 Pendant Event Data Logger to your computer for data retrieval and setup, follow these steps:



1. **Required Items:** You will need the following items:

   - HOBOware 2.x or later software (available for download at www.onsetcomp.com/hoboware-free-download)

   - USB cable

   - Pendant Optic USB Base Station & Coupler (BASE-U-1)

   - Optic USB Base Station (BASE-U-4) or HOBO Waterproof Shuttle (U-DTW-1) & Coupler (COUPLER2-A)



2. **Connection Process:**

   - Plug the USB connector on the base station into an available USB port on your computer.

   - Insert the logger and the base station into the coupler as per the instructions provided in the manual.

     - For BASE-U-1, ensure the logger is inserted in the end of the coupler with the magnet, aligning the ridges on the base station and logger with the grooves in the coupler.

     - For BASE-U-4 or the HOBO Waterproof Shuttle, firmly insert the optical end of the base station into the D-shaped end of the coupler, ensuring alignment of the ridge on the logger with the groove in the coupler.

   - If using the HOBO Waterproof Shuttle, briefly press the coupler lever to put the shuttle into base station mode.

   - Wait for the computer to detect the new hardware (if the logger has never been connected before).

   - Use the logger software (HOBOware) to set up alarms, launch, and read out the logger data.



3. **Additional Information:**

   - You can read out the logger data or check its status while it continues to log. You have the option to stop it manually with the software or let it record data until the memory is full.

   - Avoid covering the optical communication window on the logger with a label or sticker as it may interfere with communication with the base station or shuttle.



By following these steps and using the necessary items, you can successfully connect your HOBO UA-003-64 Pendant Event Data Logger to your computer for data retrieval and setup. For more detailed instructions, refer to the user manual or the software user's guide provided with the logger.
