Exploitable Quirk

I've noticed with the CM-160, and both my S/W and the owl's own S/W. If the display is left unpluged from the PC, it will only log data every few Min's. If however the display is pluged into the PC's USB port and either S/W is conected, usage is logged up to 15 times a minute (depending on the speed of the PC, and what its doing at the time).



Installation

Simply run the setup.exe in the download, no need to remove old versions.
