You need a direct and straight through cable. They are a little hard to find nowadays because most of them are wired for printer use, in which, they skip a few pins.
Development Console: SCPH-5502 with 8MB RAM, MM3 Modchip, PAL 60 Colour Modification (for NTSC), PSIO Switch Board, DB-9 breakout headers for both RGB and Serial output and an Xplorer with CAETLA 0.34.
PlayStation Development PC: Windows 98 SE, Pentium 3 at 400MHz, 128MB SDRAM, DTL-H2000, DTL-H2010, DTL-H201A, DTL-S2020 (with 4GB SCSI-2 HDD), 21" Sony G420, CD-R burner, 3.25" and 5.25" Floppy Diskette Drives, ZIP 100 Diskette Drive and an IBM Model M keyboard.

That picture looks correct. You need one with male db25 at one end & female db25 at the other (also known as an extension cable). Some Male to Female DB25 are for RS232 or printer switch boxes and neither of those require all 25 pins to be connected, so you might have problems if it doesn't mention that all pins are connected straight through.bizarro2011 wrote:which the proper pin parallel cable?
The description on this sounds like it would work http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Serial-RS232- ... 1393076352 (I'm not recommending it & I haven't looked at whether that is a fair price but it's what you need to be looking for).

Hi Guys. I have flashed version .38 onto my xploder and it works but there are no cheats. How do I get cheats onto it?
I tried caetla 0.37 and it uses cheats off the memory card that works fine but I can only use it with original disks because the drive does not unlock when it boots up ? it just keeps spinning
Is there a setting in the menu to that I need to change ? or is it just lame and cant boot copies?

may it be possible to flash an Xplorer with DB-25 cable? or I need a Comms Link? I didn't understand exactly the thing.
EDIT:
After reading all the posts and searching on Google for a while, I think I just need a DB-25 cable with all pins connected. If I can't find one, I might try getting a common printer cable and add the missing pins myself.

Printer cables are fine, I have never encountered problems with missing wires, all you need is making a centronics to db25 adapter for it.
Parallel cables with db25 on both ends are also fine (as long as you don't try to use ancient rs232 cables with crossed wires).
Comms Link is not so good, that's an isa bus card, not a cable, and the isa card was used for action replay, not for xplorer.
