Users who wish to integrate activity data logging with their own PC programs may
contact Adder for a list of RS232 data logging codes and their associated meaning.
It is possible to use the activity logging and AdderView synchronisation features
together but this requires a specially constructed RS232 cable. Please contact
Adder for further details.
