Installation
First please ensure that you have the Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 or above installed. See Introduction (link on left) for more information.
Expand the distribution Compressed archive to a suitable location, your user home or documents folder would be suitable. For Windows the program should NOT be installed in the Windows or Program Files folders. Run the RoastLogger.jar to run the program.
See the RoastLogger Installation.rtf and setup.rtf files included in the distribution for more information on installation and running of the program.
Linux users should download the .tgz version as the .zip version strips the execution permission needed from the included HID reader. They should also see the troubleshooting information (link on left) for further information on installation on Linux.
Updating
You can safely extract the RoastLogger directly over a previous installation. If you do this it will use all your previous settings from the earlier version. You can also extract it to a new location. In this case if you wish to use your previous settings and notes just copy the following four files from the earlier installation to the new installation:
- RoastLogger.properties
- RoastLoggerNotes.txt
- RoastLoggerTemplate.txt
- SerialDMMReader.properties
Uninstallation
Delete all files in the installation folder and any created shortcut/desktop icon.

If you have any problems with the RoastLogger please let me know by email.
