Hello
I lost my usb cable of ni 4431.
I tried to use a printer cable but when I use the printer cable faced with "connected device not recognise" error
My question is:
1. Can I use USB 2 AB cable that exist in market or i should buy new USB cable from NI?
2. I couldn't find USB cable details that use for NI USB-4431. Can someone help me?
Thanks

Any good quality USB A to B cable should work, these are standard cables that comply with USB standards

I bought an original HP printer cable but thats not solved the problem.
After a lot of search I find out below information and my problem solved:
Every USB 2.0 Type A to B cables made of 4 wire, 2 wire for data and 2 wire for power.
There is a code for thickness of these wires called AWG
A good cable for NI devices must be
28AWG/2c+22AWG/2c
The second code must start with 22 or lower. It means the power wires are thick enough
For more information about this code you can read below:

A good cable for NI devices must have below code
28AWG/2c+22AWG/2c
The important notice is that second code must start with 22 or lower. this means the power wires are thick enough to supply needed power for the device
