We don't have a cable (BC-85Xa) for this device. Currently, mrnuke is working on an improvised USB-to-infrared converter for development purposes. If you have a BC-85Xa you'd like to donate, contact mrnuke on #sigrok.
This can use either the BC-85X or the BC-85X-1 cables. See [[Device_cables#Brymen_BC-85X(-1)]].
See [[User_talk:Mrnuke#BM857_PC_interface_cable]] for more details.
