Digirig and raspberry pi

1

digirig turns off usb ports. Have tried an external usb hub and power supply but problem persists. After a reboot ports return until the device is again connected. Digirig works fine on windows. cp210x drivers are installed at /sys/bus/usb-serial/drivers/cp210x. Using a Raspberry pi 4 and 3 both display the same issue. It appears that the Digirig may be drawing to much current, my thought was that the external usb hub would have corrected that issue?

Larry, I put a link in your post from a couple days ago, to another post on here with a possible solution. Did you try it out? I’m curious if it’s the same issue.

Thanks

Hi Drew. As of today all is well, the PI is behaving. My concern is why, I have changed nothing concerning connections or software? For two weeks if I connected the Digirig to any USB Port the PI would disconnect to any USB device and would require a reboot to correct. I checked the drivers and all are in the PI’s driver subdirectory. using the lsusb today shows that all devices are present and WSJT-x works great?

thanks for your assistance
Larry

It’s a Digirigmas miracle!

I truly have no idea why it would suddenly start working, but I’m glad it works.

It’s a miracle aright, we both know that unknowns return to eventually bite us!

Thanks again Drew.
