InterCASIO Cable Parts

Please check first if you have all necessary parts (see photo to the left):

  • A piece of two-wire screened cable, appr. 1 m long
  • Two of 2,5mm stereo plugs

2. Assembling InterCASIO Cable

Stereo 2,5mm Plug Assembling an InterCASIO Cable is very easy! Use a piece of good quality, two-wire, screened cable (we call it here: two-wire diode cable). Solder two plugs, one on each end of the cable, paying attention to the following: the 2,5mm stereo plug itself has a metal case (S), middle contact (R) and a tip contact (T). Solder first the screening wires of the cable to S (a kind of small flag connected to S with cable fastener). Now solder the remaining wires from the cable, one to tip (T) and one to middle contact (R) of one 2,5mm stereo plug. On the other side, interconect these two wires! Thus a middle contact (R) on one side would be connecnted to the tip contact (T) on the other, and vice versa! That's it.
Check that everything is very slick, with very little solder. Now you can close the case of the metal connector. Check with multimeter for shortcuts! Are you sure that no wire (red or white) from the cable touches the case? If so, you will have a short contact - your cable won't function!
