You're stating in your subject that you have an Emerald saber, but in the post you say you have a Diamond.
Can you please check which board you have? Emerald is a rather short board where Diamond (and Obsidian) is a long board. Or check your order on your account page, it should also tell you which kind of saber you have.

If you have and Emerald + Obsidian saber, the first port you see when pulling out the battery pack is for Obsidian. The Emerald port is on the other side near the black tape with all the wires.

You can pull out the battery pack until you see the black tape (and the Emerald port) without the risk of damaging the wires, but I don't recommend pulling it out further.

If it's Diamond, you only have one port for accessing sound and colour customization.

This is what Racona Nova is talking about. Diamond on the left, with emerald & obsidian sound on the right. Diamond cards use micro usb, while emerald/obsidian use mini usb.

And a question. What usb cable are you using? If it's the one that came with the charger, it won't work with the diamond card. It only pushes power, not data. I found that out the hard way, but doing a search on the forums taught me what I was doing wrong.

Thanks for the picture. Yes, that's what I meant. Also, the point with the USB cable is worth checking. There are differences, some cables don't have data transfer capability, only power supply is possible. You'll have to test them. Or ask when purchasing one if they also transfer data. The cables from Ultrasabers' store are definitely capable of data transfer and power supply.
