If you have a female end to put on the end of the USB cable, you should be able to plug it into that little white male port

I got the tip from xenocron, but I use the power supply connectors from 3.5in drives. I just happed to have a lot of junk computers, so they are free to me.

I have been using the same 4 pin female connector that comes with the RTP kits and also the some of the other datalogging kits. you just solder the corresponding wires to the correct pins. Slip them in the connector and then plug it in. But to tell you the truth, datalogging using ebay USB cables has become such a pain in the ass lately, that I have given up. I have used many cables, and the one stated above with the blue,yellow and white will work. Just put the blue wire where the green one was on the other cable and you are set. So it should be blue -> pin 1 , yellow pin->2 and white -> pin 4.

I just got a bad batch of cables, I serisously don't understand. I will get 5 cables in and 3 will work two will not. Using the exact same cables, even using the same ecu in some cases. Even tried soldering to the board and also soldering a connector. Still nothing. So I give up and I am going serial. It is much easier and less of a hassle to get working in my opinion. The superdroid cable will plug right in. you need to swtich the +5 and the Rx I believe. But you will see when you get it, the cables are marked.

not to mention, you don't have to search the net to find the right drivers, pin outs for your particular cable, etc. and no switching of any wires with this particular cable either, it plugs right up.

I agree with you 100 percent. USB is just a big pain in my ass, especially when doing a bunch of ecus.
