Post by PEDRO SANCHEZ on Sep 25^th, 2011 at 11:08am

Hi everyone,

my cable took a dump. Will any USB cable work with the Pico? What are the specs.?

Thanks.

Yes, Pedro. Any quality USB 2.0 cable will do.

However, the Pico blue cable may be needed with the 4000 scope if you have the sloppy USB ports in your PC that many of the newer ones have.

We do stock them if needed.

My USB cable was toast right out of the box. I had a Belkin from my old printer laying around and I've been using it ever since.
Just buy a good quality cable, like a Belkin and you'll be fine.
I've haven't had a problem with mine yet.
