2. If the security warning appears, simply click run.

Note: This configuration utility or widget requires .Net 4.7 or newer to run. You will be prompted to download the correct version if necessary.

4. Connect the small end of the USB cable to the mini-USB port on the DWE. Connect the other end of the USB cable to an open port on your computer. Make sure the logger is on and connected to the power source via the AC adapter.
