Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
Thanks jim...Can you also take a few pictures of the whole thing instead just the end piece...I'd like to see what the complete kit looked like...I found USB connectors from my computer...maybe I can split the wires and it instead of getting the Nokia? Wonder if that will work...basically it's just a connector with 5 colored wires at one end...and the other end is the USB.

Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
Anyone ever try this cable?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 4122454405I have one sitting around. It looks pretty similar to the Ebay one above, but the wires to the phone are blue white and green. (could the green just be the same as the black?) how can i tell which is the rx and which is the tx lead? Can someone help me out? I can get some pictures up if that would help. Thanks.
Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
Get your voltmeter out and measure the voltages.
If the TTL part works somewhat like the MAX232 and simliar, this should apply:
--The RX is likely to be around 2.5 volts. When you fiddle with it, you should see strange characters on the terminal screen.
--The TX will likely be close to 5 volts, and the average voltage will drop when you send data from the PC.
And of course if you put the two together, whatever you type on the terminal should be echoΒ΄ed back.

Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
With the ebay cable posted above I wouldnt have to buy the "Prolific PL-2303" converter guy, right? Its already in the cable, right? All Id have to do is what jim said at the top, right?
I am a hardware retard. Oh well. I am determined to finally get this whole data logging thing going.

Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
I can only confirm that the two cables I posted above contain the PL-2303. It is housed in the small box in the middle of the cable. If you find one of the cables I used, you can follow my post step-by-step for installation. If your cable is different, you may need to trace the wires to correct the TTL RX and TX lines.
Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
their is a pocket pc driver for the pl-2303 which is really great so probally cheap ipaq 1901 with datalogging

Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
For anyone considering Uberdata these cables are 100% compatible for datalogging in version 1.6666. The Radioshack cable is the one I sent Blake for the initial development.
Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
The drivers posted above aren't online anymore. Can anyone email or IM them to me or post them somewhere again?
Re: How To: Nokia Datalogging Cable
luti, I'll e-mail it to you.
it's a 2 meg file. I hope your mail can hold it.

the usb driver is in a zip in this directory if people need it. this is my own personal server on my dsl line, so keep traffic to a minimum if possible, and please lets mirror it somewhere.
Also, I've posted this in the Wiki
