What is a short-term fix for a damaged PC-COM cable connector?

Note: These instructions also work for the SuperSting™ battery, firmware, and office power supply cable.

The PC-Com cable, SuperSting™ battery cable with clip, firmware cable, and office power supply cable use our mil-spec round connector. Unlike the electrode/extension cables, which use plastic rings—these connectors use metallic rings.

Some signs that your cable is damaged:

• You see visible damage
• Sometimes, your connection is intermittent
• You're receiving a Transmitter Offline error

Short-Term fix:

You can attach the connector to the SuperSting, which holds the pins stable, and then you can turn the backshell clockwise until it is hand-tight with two fingers/snug  (turning to the right).
