I did the same with a piece of an ordinary USB cable to which I soldered the 2nd connector. Unfortunately I lost my notes of the 20 pin layout of the connectors. Needless to say that you can blow the reader if you make a mistake. I remember I found in my situation some discrepancies with Snoopy ’s layout in post 1 of this thread.
So it is different than the diagram posted here? Any chance you could have a llook / taking readings to let me know correct postion. Also Did you solder to the USB connector or wires after you cut?
