The correct cable for the PRO-433 is the 20-047 right?

I'm gonna buy the PRO-433 today, so I want to make sure...

Providing your computer has a USB port, yes the #20-047 is the correct cable.

If your computer is older it may not have USB ports, and you will want to get the older (recently discontinued) RS232 serial cable, #20-289. The serial cable has a DB9 female connector, and your computer would need a DB9 male connector. If that's what you're looking for, numerous stores still have them in inventory at a clearance price of $4.97.
