Might want to try this free software as an alternative. The support is better, because the author is a member here.

Re: cant datalog

Are the COM ports listed darkened in the Datamaster display box or are they grey? If grey, they are not available to use. Datamaster just puts them there to indicate they might be available and darkens them if they are available. If a driver isn't loaded, the one you need will appear grey in Datamaster, or not at all in my app, Scan9495. If you still need help, I can tell you how to check, using the Device manager in Windows, to see if a driver is loaded correctly for the cable.
