If the host computer does not have an RS232 port then a USB to serial adapter may be used.<br />
Data Logger Connection<br />
The supplied data logger serial cable is designed to connect to the serial sensor port on a DT80 series logger.<br />

Note: By default, the <strong>CANgate</strong> host port operates at a high baud rate (57600 baud). At this speed, the maximum cable length<br />
for the host computer or data logger connection is approximately 5 metres, assuming good quality shielded cable is used. If<br />
a longer cable is required, the <strong>CANgate</strong> baud rate should be reduced (see Configuration (P11)), eg. at 9600 baud a cable<br />
length of 40m is normally possible.<br />
