About the Power Switch Delay
After switching between the hosts, certain connected USB peripherals need to be reset to operate properly.
Enable the power switch delay function, then the 5V power of all the devices is off for 2 seconds. This forces
the devices to restart, thus the user does not have to physically unplug/re-plug the connected USB device.
