A question about the Riser?

Post by Tiggythecat »

Heya guys and girls I recently got one of these and love the USB support however I find 2 ports a problem for keyboard, mouse and Joypad - is there any way I can connect a hub? I mean I have tried but no luck so what I really mean is there any trick I employ to do this?

Dont think that works.

I use a keyboard/mouse combo device. Those work. I've never actually tried the joystick as i've been so busy moving house

I have never implemented hub support.
It was on my list todo, but there was very little feedback requesting it, and it makes whole usb stack far more complex.

Well it is good timing. Now that the Tf1230 is mostly done my second lab station is going to be dedicated to the TF360.... Maybe i need a third station... OMG.

It would be really cool to have hub support - could make for a nice stream lined set up.

Issue is that this riser will never support non standard mouse. There is far too many of them on the market to do it.
Expanding gamepad support for PS or XBOX gamepads might be a little bit easier.
