Logger serial port adapter

[4g63tcrazy]

What adapter do I need to hook up my logger cable to the serial port or usb port in my laptop? Not too familiar with how these work. I have a logger in my red car with an adapter for my palm pilot but that's back at home in MN. Also would radio shack carry the adapter?

You Need a USB to RS-232 (male serial) adapter. I have a Keyspan for my DSMlink but there are a lot out there from $15-$40 (office max has one for $40) i bet radio shack would have one, maybe even walmart??
