Motion plunger board disconnects automatically

[dreamkey56]

Hello.

I have a problem with my motion plunger kit:

It disconnects automatically after a few seconds ( sometimes more, sometimes less),

When I am playing a table.

First I thought, it is related to my opto board, because happened the first time, after i installed my opto board.

But now I putted my opto board away, and have still the same problem: motion plunger board disconnects automatically. I have to plug the USB port out and in, and then it works again. For a short while.

Can anybody help me?

Any idea?

Thx,

Hp

Drawing too much power from USB socket possibly. Have you tried different sockets, are you using a Hub, Powered Hub, Connected to front panel of PC or Direct to Board Port?

Hi.

I tried different sockets, USB2.0, USB3.0, Front, Back, and on the separate RocketfishUSB Card, where my pindmd is connected. Everywhere the same.

I will also try a powered USB Hub, but I am afraid, this is not the problem, because it worked for many weeks without this problem..

I will assume that you have also swapped out the cable then. In which case it's going to be back to manufacturer for you me thinks.

Hi.

Swapping USB cable isnt possible,

As it is glued in in the box.

Not a separate cable.

Is there a possibility, that this is a software problem, or is it hardware related, so I have to send it back?

Hi again,

I tried another old VP configuration, that I saved on another hard disc.

Still the same Problem, when I start VP here.

Only wanted to check, if there is something wrong with configuartion.

For me it seems, that the board has a Hardware Problem

I read that this is a common problem for that kit. More info here: http://www.vpforums.org/index.php?showtopic=25885&page=4

I recommend that you contact Noah for a RMA
