Hi everyone

I have an offer for an xmod, but no cable - the one that goes from the computer to the programer. What kind of cable does it use? It seem like a usb on one end, but what about on the other end. Is it possible to purchase it separately? How much does it cost to purchase it separately?

I hope it is just a usb male b to male a, but i can't tell.

Thanks

cable from computer to programmer is a standard usb style printer cable. a USB-A to USB-B cable is the one needed.

here is a visual of what the cable looks like: http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3243176


so i assume you have the other cable already? the cable that goes from the programmer to the E/X-mag board. that is the special one you need from Lorne



but if you want to pick up a USB-A t USB-B cable for cheap, I have a few new ones laying around. could sell you a new for $10.00 shipped. just pm me if interested.
