We don't have the BC-85X cable for this device. The BC-85Xa, which we tried, is not compatible this multimeter.
This can use either the BC-85X or the BC-85X-1 cables. See [[Device_cables#Brymen_BC-85X(-1)]].
The BC-85-1 seems to work acceptably well.


Currently, mrnuke is working on an improvised USB-to-infrared converter for development purposes. If you have a BC-85X you'd like to donate, contact mrnuke on #sigrok.
