Just picked up a shiny new R5 yesterday. I got a test setup running and am very happy about the purchase, but I am stumped by the included cables. I thought the the cables would allow me to put external receptacles on the machine so I could plug into them when I wanted (control USB, UDISK, and Ethernet).

Here are the control ports:



This cable can get the USB control interface to the outside:



So you can plug a computer in using the standard A-A cable:



But how do I get the UDISK (flash drive) interface out? Or what about Ethernet? The only other cable is this:



But that does me no good since it is a USB B (flash drive needs USB A) and I cannot plug the 2x4 Molex into anything!

Did I get the wrong cables? How do I gain access to the UDISK and Ethernet from outside the machine?

Interesting my LO-R5 came with B receptacle, instead of a A on the wall mount end, the other two are the same.
I have through wall USB A receptacle to USB A receptacle that I plan on using for the plugging in my UDisk when I get finished.

Figured the one with the 2x4 molex was for another style that I don't have they just have a kit they throw in.

The team at Light Object was quick to email me and then followed up with a phone call. They said they are sending out the three cables I was looking for today.

Thank you. That is good customer service.

That's cool that LO is sending out the right cables. I purchased that right cables on my own. I guess I should have talked to them first. That 2x4 is weird!
