Texas Instruments 94327 Ti Graphlink USB

I got this as a replacement fo one tha I lost a couple of years ago. At that time I didn't kmow of the substantial variety of "applications" that you can download and use on this calculator. I recently had need for a couple of those app's and couldn't find my link cable. I ordered this one and it works just great!! And the cool app's are living and being used happily on my TI-89. If you have the right calculator, internet access, and like to have some really cool app's on the calculator, then you need this link cable. It is wonderful to use.

I bought this out of sheer necessity because I wanted to put some 3rd party apps on my Ti-89. Well, sucks for me, I only had the old cable and a USB to Serial cable. While the USB to Serial cable does the job, the software no longer works with the serial cable well enough to provide a seamless experience. Updating the firmware took about an hour and I couldn't even install an app, much less send a file to my Ti-89 with that rig. Reluctantly, I got this cable and wow, it is super easy to use, very reliable and much much faster than the old cable. All in all, this was worth forking out the $20 I had to spend.

The cable arrived in perfect condition and works great for my TI 83 plus. Thank you!

Ordering and delivery were prompt. The product works as advertised. I researched this product at length, including the Texas Instrument site, and Found that Amazon was cheaper for the same product. Two things to keep in mind are that the user MUST ABSOLUTELY use windows XP/98/ME for the product to work properly. The TI site said it was compatible with Vista and I found out that it is not and even in compatibility mode will not function with Vista. The TI site also says that there are lots of free apps available for download. There are lots of free apps available especially for students using the calculator for physics data gathering applications. I am in College algebr and purchased it as it was a requirement for class. There are only a couple of apps for algebra and they are not very good. Several apps offered are far too large for the calculators memory. Everything has to be deleted in order for them to fit. Fortunate;y, the program allows the usaer to back-up all programs on the calculator prior to making any changes. The patch cable itself works well and as advertised. If you're wanting apps to go along with it i suggest looking at the TI site prior to purchasing to see if there is anything there that will work for you. Like I said, lots of cool apps for the upper egg-head classes, but nothing that will help to learn algebra other than what comes with the calculator.

The software is free to download from the website listed in the back of the packaging. I've tested this cable on the ti83 and the ti83 plus. Both work fine. The ti83 is not compatible with many apps like the notefolio app I use to write notes but works fine with the ti83 plus. The cable does the job it's intended to do. I do want to say to those who have not not purchased a ti calculator yet to not buy anything below ti84 plus. Those use a mini USB cable which are easier to find anywhere and dirt cheap. Most of us may even have one lying around the house somewhere. I believe it has more memory and it's more compatible with apps as well. It's worth it and roughly the same price when you factor in the cost of this cable with a ti83 plus.

The product came quickly, is sturdy, reliable, and gets the job done. It was a cheap alternative to some other cables I had viewed, and thus I was skeptical at first. I have had this for around 2 months now, and it is still in great condition even after near-daily use. Easy to setup, still working fine, no defects in the cable, no signs of wear, and cheap compared to similar cables. What more could you ask for in this product?

I purchased the graphlink USB to replace my old serial graphlink. It works with TI connect software on XP32 bit and Vista 32 bit. It would not work on XP 64 bit. The serial graphlink would not work with TI connect software on my old TI89. The new TI89 has a built in USB port so only people like me with old calculators can use it. It does work excellent!

I always wanted one of these since I was in high school. Asteroids 0.99 and Phoenix 4.4 for the ti-83+ are PEAK. Calculator games do NOT deserve to be as fun as they are. I can play them for 45 minutes easy. Just remember to archive the programs with an asterix on 2nd->mem or they will disappear!

Delivered on time. Exactly what I needed for my calculator

è un cavo per il trasferimento dei dati originale della texas instrument. l'ho acquistato perché la mia calcolatrice programmabile del 2004 aveva il cavetto con una porta vecchia a 9 pin. questo mi ha risolto il problema. funziona perfettamente

Fonctionne parfaitement avec ma "vieille TI89" achetée en 1998 (donc non titanium) et qui possède une prise type "jack" sur le coté bas de la calculatrice. J'ai essayé le cable avec un premier ordinateur (Win XP 32 bits SP3) et un second (Win 7 64 bits) avec le logiciel de Texas Instrument gratuit "TI Connect" et tout fonctionne parfaitement. Je l'ai utilisé pour: _ Ecrire des notes de cours puis les transférer dans la calculatrice (en utilisant le logiciel gratuit "Wordrider"). _ Transférer des programmes téléchargés depuis internet vers la calculatrice. _ Mettre à jour le logiciel interne de la calculatrice avec la toute dernière version. (L'installation du programme est très longue environ 30 min). _ Ajouter des fonctionnalités à la calculatrice en installant des programmes "Flash" disponibles sur le site de Texas Instrument. Le cable est parfait! je suis ravi de mon achat. Je recommande sans aucune hésitation.

Entgegen der Behauptung in einer anderen Rezension hier, das USB-Link-Kabel würde nicht unter Windows 7 / 64 Bit funktionieren, konnte ich es heute durchaus unter diesem Betriebssystem in Betrieb nehmen. Zuerst sollte man die neueste Version von "TI Connect für Windows" ( Vers. 4.0.0.218 ) installieren, wo scheinbar auch Treiber enthalten sind. Die Datei heisst "TI-Connect_DE-4.0.0.218.exe , ca. 16,9 MB gross, erhältlich per Download bei TI. Danach den Calculator ( bei mit TI-83 Plus Silver Edition ) ans USB-Kabel anschliessen, einschalten und an den PC anschliessen. Windows Update installiert dann sofort den Treiber. Die o.g. Software scheint mir auch durchaus brauchbar zu sein, erkennt den TI-83 sofort und man kann auf ihn zugreifen. Scheint auch stabil zu laufen. Nähere Tests müssen noch folgen... Fazit: Hardware ( made in China ) stabil, Software ok, also empfehlenswert, 5 Sternchen.

Just what we needed and did the trick to update the calculator.
