You want Davis part #6510, available from Amazon <https://www.amazon.com/Davis-Instruments-WeatherLink-USB-Software/dp/B001AMKC14>, Ambient Weather <http://www.ambientweather.com/dain65usbwef.html>, and other vendors. Throw the software away, keep the connector. It is grotesquely overpriced for what you get, tempting users to either build their own <http://www.wxforum.net/index.php?topic=13574.0>, or find a 3rd party alternative <http://belfryboyweatherbits.blogspot.com/p/the-belfryboy-clone-usb-logger.html> .
