Specialized Interface: Waterproof USB Adapter for Elite Pro & IC-7
The Waterproof USB Extension Cable (400mm) is a critical interface adapter designed specifically for the Haltech Elite PRO Plug-in ECUs (such as the Ford Falcon Barra unit) and the IC-7 Digital Display Dash. These devices often utilize a compact, robust circular mini connector for their communications port to save space and ensure a watertight seal on the device body. This cable adapts that proprietary circular port into a standard USB Type-B female connector. This conversion is essential, as it allows the user to connect a standard USB A-to-B tuning cable (like the HT-070002 or a standard printer cable) to communicate with the device. Without this adapter, connecting a laptop for ECU calibration or Dash configuration is impossible.
Engineering for Reliability and Access
The cable features a 90-degree right-angle circular connector on the device end, designed to fit snugly against the ECU or Dash casing without protruding excessively—a vital feature for tight installations behind dashboards or in kick panels. The 400mm (16-inch) length is calculated to act as a “pigtail,” bringing the connection point out from the device to a more accessible location where a tuning cable can be easily plugged in. The USB Type-B end is molded and robust, designed to accept frequent mating cycles. The entire assembly is shielded to prevent data corruption from electrical noise, ensuring that your map writes and firmware updates are secure.
Operational Benefits
- Port Adaptation: Converts the specific 4-pin/circular port on Elite Pro/IC-7 to a standard USB standard.
- Accessible Tuning: Allows the USB connection point to be relocated 400mm away from the device, facilitating easier access in cramped interiors.
- Strain Relief: The right-angle design reduces stress on the device’s PCB connector.
- Versatility: Works for both the Elite Pro Plug-in ECU range and the IC-7 Dash series.
Fitment Guide
Required for communication with the following hardware:
- ECUs: Elite PRO Direct Plug-in (e.g., Ford Falcon Barra).
