Title: ICSP extension cable for flashing
Post by: Night Owl on November 27, 2012,

I think someone posted a link for an ICSP extension type cable but I can't find it.  Does anyone remember what it was?  Or was I totally imagining it?  It was to make it easier to reflash the EtherDongle's PIC when the Conductor is attached.

There are others out there.  Also, if you got the kit from j1sys (like many here have) it comes with a cable as well.

You can also use the servo extension cables like what is used for the wireless mod for other controllers.  RJ talked about doing that in the Aether I video from a couple of years ago.  See this for an example.

I use 2 of these on my Aether to access the ICSP without taking it out of the case.  Just mark which way they are connected to the board and where pin 1 is.  Easy peasy.
