You've got the software installed on your computer and now you want to use the LogTag, 
see how it goes and what it can do. This chapter will briefly cover the steps involved to 
get your LogTag ready to use, how to get it started and then retrieve the recorded 
information out of the LogTag. The subsequent chapters will explain in more depth these 
steps and the various options available to you.

There are two types of the Interface Cradle available. The first connects to the computers 
serial (RS232) communications port and the other connects to the computers USB 
(Universal Serial Bus) communications port. Although there may be multiple connectors 
on the computer for each of these types of communications ports, the shape of each is 
unique and therefore it is not possible to connect the Interface Cradle to the wrong type 
of communications port. The software supports the connection of multiple Interface 
Cradles at the same time and therefore as many serial and/or USB Interface Cradles as 
are needed and the computer supports may be connected. 

The connectors for the serial (RS232) communications ports typically look like the 
following picture.
