cable for kosi

[JohnSebeny]

my Win Vista laptop took a poop a few weeks ago. got a Win 7 laptop now (64-bit). heard the cable that i was able to use on my Vista machine will NOT work for my Win 7 laptop. is that true? if so, where could i get one that will work for a 64-bit Win 7 that the K+ will recognize? Thanks in advance.

download the "Parts & Products 2011-2012" pdf and go to page 14. at the bottom is the list of cords.
as to whether or not they will work with 64bit I don't know but if you reference the numbers on a free call to kegel they can probably tell you quick.

$125 they want for that cord.. geez!! anybody got a spare they want to part with?

To order the complete cable assembly you would need to order the 154-8771B which will work with the 64 bit system and it will come with everything you need. If you have a serial port on this laptop for communication you can just order the serial to serial cable (154-8724) which is $85 retail. If you do need the USB adapter here's a link to purchase it on line and it will save you some money. Hope this helps

I still use my cable on my windows 7 64 bit laptop....
But I do use serial to usb adapter

We currently have a cable to support a 32bit OS...however we now have a new windows 7 64bit OS computer...and the cable we have does not work. Is there anyway around not buying the $125 one from kegel???

The cheapest way would be to install the 32 bit version of win 7.If you have the install disks there should be both versions.
I got tired of certain devices not running on 64 bit,went back to 32 bit,now no problems.

We also use our old cable with a usb adatpter. Every so often have to restart Kosi, but better than spending $125!

You could do what I did and check out Ebay. Got my cable for right around $40. Works great!

Here is a link to a list of the cables available on Ebay. I'll let you decide if you want one from the U.S. or China.
