All Users: HOBO Optic data loggers must be inserted into the Base Station (or Shuttle) using the appropriate coupler for that logger in order for the computer to detect them. Note: HOBOware will not detect the Base Station alone as an attached USB device.
Check to make sure that the coupler is positioned properly and the magnet end is closest to the data logger, not the Base Station or the Optic Shuttle.
