*Charging Downstream Port (CDP) Being enabled means that a port is capable of transferring data
and charging the device at the same time with a higher current than just data syncing alone. With
CDP enabled the hub can supply up to 1.5A
If you disable CDP you will receive the notification “This Hub has the Charge Downstream Port UCS
mode disabled. This could limit the maximum current seen on some ports.”
There is more information on the NVRAM settings and how to manage them in our CLI manual. which
can be found at the link here.
CAUTION
A new version may be available
Ensure you have the latest version of LiveViewer installed on your host system. These
updates will often contain new features, fixes for bugs and performance
improvements
5.5.3 Cambrionix API
The Cambrionix API allows you to monitor and control each port in detail and to integrate these
functions into your own workflow processes. The API comprises a daemon (which is a program
running in the background) that can be downloaded from
www.cambrionix.com/products/api and
installed on the host machine. Port information and control can be provided through the API. Calls are
sent as a request to the API to “Get” port, device or Hub information, or “Set” port functions. A library
of sample code is downloaded along with the API
from the following link
www.cambrionix.com/products/api and can be found within the program files under 'examples'.
These can help you integrate many of these functions into your process work-flow alongside the
complete user manual.
CAUTION
A new version may be available
Ensure you have the latest version of API installed on your host system. These
updates will often contain new features, fixes for bugs and performance
improvements
