Rig1 gets a new Pegasus Astro Powered USB Control Hub

The existing hub I was using, a TP-Link 7-Port Powered Hub, didn't disconnect all devices when power was shut off, and some remained connected, this meant power cycling wasn't event when a usb device was misbehaving.
Switched the hub over to the Pegasus Astro USB Control Hub, where each port can be independently controlled.

Looks like a great little device. I'm a fan of Pegasus Astro gear.

[@DavesAstrophotography]

Cheers Logan, this is my first bit of Pegasus gear, nice solid kit, see how it it goes and certainly have to consider their products in the future.

Pegasus Astro makes some very good Products . I'm very happy with my PPB and of course the Support . Great solution for your issues Dave ./SRK

[@DavesAstrophotography]

Cheers Scott, will wait and see what happens next time the camera does it and see if it works....

I have a Pegasus Advanced Power Box Gen1 and outside of a USB issue with USB3 ZWO cameras not working correctly in USB Port1 - which is really a non-issue when the camera can be plugged into one of the other three USB3 ports, it's a nifty little piece of gear. I was thinking on getting another USB hub to replace the one I have because like you, I get power leakage when the hub is powered off. Hopefully your USB problems are solved with your new purchase.

[@DavesAstrophotography]

Yep, confirm switchable USB solves the problem and can reset the camera issue remotely now.

Thanks.

Have you tested the transfer speeds with the hub? I want to get one, but I would like to confirm that we are indeed getting USB 3.1 speeds (5 Gbps)

[@DavesAstrophotography]

No I haven't tried the transfer rate, I have a look at that when I get back to Cyprus...
