Question about USB Link and TI82
« on: March 09, 2013, 10:37:29 am »
So I always assumed that TI's USB cables don't work with TI82, since that's what everybody says (including TI).
However, after reading this post, I'm starting to wonder... if the SilverLink works for TI86, why shouldn't it work for TI82 as well? I mean, if it doesn't work with TI82, then the problem would be due to lack of software support rather than hardware issues, right?

Hope someone can shed some light on this.

I don't have any USB link cable. Just wanted to know if it works in case I get one (or people ask me).

I don't have the non-stats 82 around with me, but I'm almost sure I already used it for the purpose of communicating with TILP, though it's been a while.

As far as TI Connect goes, it looks like a no. There's no option for the TI-82 or the TI-85 in the drop down menu, and TI connect fails to find it (I have the old style TI-82). As far as graphlink software goes... I can't remember. If it supports the Silverlink (I think it did), it should undoubtedly support the TI-82. I have no idea where my graphlink software is at right now though. As for TILP, I don't have it installed, so I can't check.

If you are talking TI-Connect no, but with TiLP, I use my silver link cable with my ti-82, do 2nd Link select recieve, then on TiLP send the file, it usually works. Hope this helped!

Thanx y'all for your replies! Might look into getting a SilverLink then. Beats having to carry around my old P3 I guess ;)

One thing I wonder: Does TI-Connect still fail to send certain old calculator games? I think it was Joltima for the TI-82, 83+ and 86 that were affected due to being compiled with Bin2var (which screwed up the header), but it was a long time ago.

As far as I know yes. I can't get Megaman 86 to send to my TI-86. I'm sure there were others, but I remember that one specifically.
