Lite-ON dump/flash with Iprep 8.8 and CK3 Pro

[bittersuit_98]

Hi everyone....My CK3 PRO got in today . I'm a little confused as the CK3 pro came with no instructions.
First off, the CK3 pro comes with what it seems to be an USB cable. In one end the USB cable has a mini-usb jack (the end that goes onto the CK3 tablet with the eject and mode B switches), and in the other end it has a standard USB jack (which I'm assuming connects to the PC)
Please, keep in mind that I'll be working on iPrep 8.8 . So here are the questions:


1. Is this USB cable good to dump to the key off the lite-On in iPrep 8. or do I still need the COM 9-pin cable?
My confusion gets bad because Cofree uses the 9-pin cable with iPrep in his video tutorial, whereas Sadalius uses the USB but he uses jungleflasher.
2. When making the bootable USB stick, and assuming that I'm using the above described USB cable, do I still need to select COM 1 on iPrep?

3. This is really silly...aside from the SATA, USB, and Power cable, the CK3 PRO comes with 2 actual pieces of hardware (2 tablets). One tablet has the mode B and and eject switches, the other one is just a simple a tablet with no switches. What's the second tablet for?
Have a great weekend all !

1: Nope you need an r232 cable if you're planning on using iprep. Order a male to female serial extension cable and you're good to go.

2: See above.

3: Its a hard drive adaptor.

And have a great weekend too.
