Hi friends i have a SA124B SA and i will love runing it in an old notebook that i have the only two issues is :
1) The laptop only run on ubuntu and for what i read, the spike have no support on that OS, is that rigth or i have any way to running it ?
2) the USB availability, i dont have to free ports to use a USB 2.0 type “Y” and i would like to know if i can use a “regular” 2.0 USB cable.
Thanks for all !Tamantea,
1) Unfortunately the SA124 is not supported on Ubuntu. Spike itself will work on Ubuntu, but only with our other models. Neither the SA44 or SA124 models work under Linux, only Windows 10/11.
2) You can certainly try using a standard cable. In most instances it will be fine. But not all USB ports will be able to supply adequate power to the SA124 over a single USB port. If you experience issues, you will need to revert to the y-cable.
Let us know if you have additional questions.
