Title: What USB cable does Ultimarc Ipac use?
Post by: 1500points on April 26, 2016, 09:44:08 am: I have an ultimarc ipac ve which has a lost USB cable.
I have read the ultimarc site, googled, and searched here....and no one says specifically what cable connector is on the ipac.

It looks a bit like this center google image....but I can't be 100% confident by the pic.

Can someone clarify what USB cable would be an adequate replacement for a lost cable?
thank you.

so it would need a mini type b plug (5 position) to USB cable? Right?
