I recently purchased a used 2004 RX8 w a Greddy bolt on turbo with the blue emanage.

My computer does not have a 9pin serial port, all I have are USB A ports and a 15pin VGA port. I want to be able to communcate with blue emanage but what type of cable and/or adapters do I need to buy?

I already tried using a printer cable with an adapter to make it a USB-USB, but my computer still wouldn't communicate with the emanage. Since I'm still learning any help would be greatly appreciated.

I live in Galveston/Houston area, so if there's anyone that would be willing to meet up and teach a newbie, that would be great.

Thank You

 

All you need is a regular USB cable.

I have no idea why you are talking about the DB9 (serial connection)

 

the instructions say to use a DB9 serial. Then it also mentions not to use a USB-USB cable. But are you saying just need a USB to USB cable?

My problem is not connecting to the emanage, but to my computer.

Again I already tried using a printer cable with an adapter to make it a USB-USB cable, but my computer still wouldn't communicate with the emanage.

 

No idea why the instructions would ask for db9 cable. wierd.

Just use a usb to usb.
