Universal Serial Bus Controller To Com Port

[Maricel Fergason]

I figured out that there is no connection whatsoever though the Ethernet port of my Desktop though control panel --> networks and Internet --> network and sharing center. Which doesn't show the any Ethernet connection.

Hi Marc,

I want to control the 2F gripper using my teach pendant. I am unable to do that.

I tried changing the IP address as you had suggested but the moment I change the IP address to 192.168.1.10 it shows a DHCP is not configured error and the internet connection gets cut off.

Do you think that the reason I am not able to control the gripper using my teach pendant is because of the IP address not being in the same domain?

"I think you have an Ether CAT controller so you won't be able to connect on RUI via ethernet. Only a USB-USB connection is possible with RUI."

This is true. I'm sorry I worded it wrongly. I am able to control the gripper using RUI from an USB-USB connection, YES!
But, I am not able to control the gripper using the robot controller (Teach Pendant) which is my primary concern.

In my PC there are two connections. (Ethernet and Ethernet 2). The internet is connected via the Ethernet 2 port.

I have just completed my first build of a DIY CNC machine. I am attempting to use an Arduino Uno, GRBL and four DM542T stepper motor drivers to drive 4 NEMA23 stepper motors (1 for x, 2 for y, 1 for z). I'm very new to Arduino and electronics in general but I've spent months attempting to learn. I'm fairly confident that my wiring is correct as it matches the setups I've seen in other posts/videos. I've also been able to write some simple sketches that activate/control the motors, But I cannot seem to get Universal G Code Sender to connect to the Arduino.

I've loaded/installed GRBL on my Arduino Uno and can see that it was successful. When I enter $$ in the ADE serial monitor, the configuration settings display and I can modify individual settings using the $= commands. But when I launch Universal G Code Sender and attempt to connect to the Arduino, nothing happens and I get a UGS message that reads, "Error opening connection: Could not connect to controller on port jserialcomm://COM3:115200." I've searched several the internet several times to try and find a solution but have not been successful. Does anyone have any suggestions? I feel like it may be something simple. On most of the videos I've seen, the step to connect the Arduino with UGS seems to work smoothly. I must be missing something.

The SCX11 can store up to 100 programs and execute various operations, from simple movements like "repeated positioning operation" to complicated controls like "operation by calculating the value based on external inputs".

The convenient and easy-to-use PC software, "Immediate Motion Creator for CM/SCX Series", is provided with the SCX11. Easily start an operation with the click of a button or start key by setting the travel amount and speed. The GUI allows for easy program creation by selecting commands from the commands list. Other functions available include; real time monitor for the teaching position, current position and I/O status, system parameter setting, oscilloscope function and I/O assignment.

The SCX11 can connect to a PC via RS-232C or USB. The SCX11
can also be connected via an RS-232C daisy chain connection for
multi-axis control with another SCX11 or other products such as the
ASX Series all-in-one closed loop Alphastep motor.

The SCX11 can communicate a wide variety of signals via I/O to a
programmable controller. Serial communications is also available, if
the programmable controller has a USB or RS-232C interface built-in.

This function is available for conditional branching using general-purpose I/O, wait processes using internal timers and other operations based on sequence control including setting the positioning and speed data. The SCX11 can store up to 100 different programs that can be selected and executed via USB, RS-232C, CANopen and I/O port.

*You can set the speed and travel amount as the unit of your actual motion such as "mm", "inch" and "revolution".

Operate a motor directly by sending commands via the serial
port (USB, RS-232C, CANopen) from a PC or programmable
controller. This function is suitable for applications where positioning
data is updated frequently or managed all at once by the PC or
programmable controller.

The SteamSpeed 4-port Electronic Boost Controller ups the ante again. Our 3-port controller is vastly superior to the stock units, but our 4-port version goes further providing the maximum level of boost control available allowing more sophisticated boost control schemes allowing the tuner to have even more control and wider ranges of operation of the wastegate.

Our 4-port controller can be used in many configurations, so consult your tuner to understand if a 4-port controller is right for your build, but typically, 4-port controllers are used with an aftermarket wastegate with ports on both sides of the wastegate's diaphragm. The 4-port controller allow fine control on both sides of the diaphragm which provides finer grain control of the spring preload, etc. which enables a broader range of boost control on the wastegate. Cool right?

If your goal is to use the controller on both sides of the diaphragm, then you need to have a wastegate that supports it. Many of our wastegates do have ports on both sides of the diaphragm, so they may be used in this way, but typically, this type of controller would be used with the larger external wastegates, like the ones used in a STI's rotated turbo setup. If your turbo's wastegate is only one port, then you'd probably use one of our 3-port controllers.

With decades of engineering experience, building cars, and going fast, we are committed to designing and manufacturing turbos and parts we are proud to run in our own cars, parts that are engineered to out perform, and last. We are committed products that just work with great fitment right out of the box with everything you need to be successful. This is our commitment and our obsession. We are SteamSpeed.

Another method is to view Properties > Details for each of the devices in question. Going through the list of properties you may find features and IDs that provide clues regarding the capabilities and nature of each specific device, and you may be able to identify the USB-C port this way too.

Type-C port is just a connector, there is no special properties for it. It is up to system designer what to route/multiplex to this port, be it an alternative DisplayPort, or Thunderbolt, or audio accessory port, or debug port, or whatever on the top of USB 3.0. The OS will only know if there is a corresponding system controller, but the actual routing should be described in system datasheet.

To determine the port functionality experimentally, you would need to have all corresponding devices physically, Type-C USB device, Type-C DP device/adapter, etc., plug them in one by one, and see the system reaction in Device Manager. This is a "plug-and-play" port, so before a device is plugged in, nobody (besides desingners/datasheets) knows what the port will do.

What would you recommend as a free utility or steps to take to view the USB controllers on my Windows 2012 Multipoint Server so that I can determine if the 10 clients through 2 plugable hubs and 2 connections to 2 USB ports on the server are optimal? In other words, out of the 8 USB ports on the server (mix of 2.0 and 3.0), I need to know which ones are on separate controllers (?) and therefore which ones to use so that I can best balance the load (like 5 clients on one USB controller and 5 on another). Thanks!

I recently built a computer lab with 10 Plugable DC-125 USB 2.0 devices and Windows Multipoint Server 2012. I have two 8-port? plugable USB hubs splitting the load with two feeds to two of the 8 or so USB ports on the 8 core 8gb server.

I was working on my computer, and all of a sudden the wireless mouse stopped working. I thought it was a battery issue, but it ended up being a driver issue. In Device Manager, there is no longer the Universal Serial Bus Controllers tree. Instead, under Other devices, I get USB xHCI Compliant Host Controller with the exclamation point. I did a system restore to when everything was working fine, to no avail. Then I noted the computer had set an earlier restore point when a critical update was installed. So, for the heck of it, I tried another system restore, and OMG! it worked. My USB ports were back to operable, and the Device Manager showed a Universal Serial Bus Controllers tree with 7 items under it! I then installed the Intel Chipset Installation and Driver Utility v. 10.1.1.8 (as my HP Support Assistant software was suggesting I do), and everything went back to not functioning. Cool, i'll just do another system restore. But the restore point that resulted in success was no longer available. I did do a manual restore point when everything was back to working, but restoring back to that point did nothing. As i attempted in vain to resolve this issue, i had Device Manager show the Hidden Values, and found that everything was there, but Intel(R) USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller - 1.0 (Microsoft). Great! I go to Intel's site to download the thing, and guess what? Windows 10 will not accept (install) it because it's made for Windows 7. So here i sit. No ability to backup my hard drive because no plug & play capabilities (ports can't recognize, thus can't read, USB flash drives); relegated to the laptop mouse, which is unbelievably slow & uncomfortable; and, another thing it got rid of was my bluetooth capability and the installed camera no longer works... I attach pictures of what Device Manager looks like when things are working, and what it currently looks like, with the hidden items revealed. If anyone can help me get the driver needed to make everything go back to ok, i would be MOST appreciative! Thank you...
