Re:Best way to datalog (uberdata)
all the 4 pin header does is make it easier to solder wires. it depends on what you want. the nokia cable only requires you to solder 3 wires (pins 1,2, and 4), the max233 adapter cost more and requires more work b/c you have to assemble the max233 board. if you have usb port on your lap top, go with the nokia cable, but nothing, i repeat nothing is just going to 'plug' right up to the header.

Okay so not even the superdroid cable will connect to it?
That's fine, i'll try to get the cable at radio shack today.
I don't mind soldering at all - just trying to save myself a little time.
Thanks for the reply projekteg.

i've never used a super droid, but my understanding is that yes, it comes with a femal 4 pin adapter and will plug up, but you have to switch the wires around on the actual cable assembly to have the corresponding wires match up at cn2. (tx,rx,+5v,ground) i believe is the order on the cable, and the order at cn2 is (ground,rx,+5v,tx)

Re:Best way to datalog (uberdata)
well you can use a ton of different cables. You just have to figure out what wires are send, receive, and ground. There is a post on PGMFI.org that listed a site that had a chart for a ton of cables. Most write-ups are for the specific Nokia cable, but many will work.

you already have the 4 pin header, just get the super droids cable, you won't have to do any soldering or anything, they're only 30 bucks shipped, i've started using them b/c they're much easier with the 4 pin header.
