Couple of weeks ago I got back my nearly one year old AR7000 from Horizon. I had them updated it to the "quick connect" configuration. I had read that the logger will work on older AR7000 if it's plug into the battery port. I tried it and it sort of worked. The logger recognized there was only one main receiver and one remote. But the data was nonsense. I called Horizon back about this and was told the AR7000 can be upgraded for logger operation but you specifically have to request it. I hadn't. You might call and verify this.
