Installation procedure

By clicking the download button below and then accepting the license agreement, you will download a compressed zip file (dlgr21mn.zip) to your hard drive. Note that this file should be saved in a subdirectory since it will not install if it is just at a main drive directory (e.g., don't save it just at C:\\). Double-click this file in Windows Explorer to unzip the following four files:

1. SETUP.EXE: the setup program
2. SETUP.LST: a list required by the setup program
3. DATALOGR.CAB: the compressed DataLogr files
4. INSTALL.PDF: installation instructions

Double-click on SETUP.EXE to install DataLogr and its support files onto your computer.

Note:  With Windows 7, the installation will ask about replacing an OCX with an older one, and the answer should be NO.  Win7 has a compatibility troubleshooting program, so that can still be applied if necessary.

Federal and Michigan version

Users who prefer to use the full federal metadata standard or the Michigan IMAGIN guidelines, or who need a more generic output file formatting utility, should download DataLogr from the IMAGIN website.
