So I was successfully able to power my uno q using the VIN using a 12v supply 10A, it works fine, I'm able to ssh and everything.
ISSUE:
I plugged in a logitech USB webcam (c270) which worked when it was connected using USB C dock.
But now when I connect it directly to the c port of the UNO Q, using a USB A to C connector, and run the app which uses the camera, it says:
for reference of how I connected it:
Thank you for the response,
is there no way to connect the USB cam directly to the c port of UNO Q and run it?
As, in my project I require it that way.
Do let me know
Hi @ventoron,
Unfortunately, the use of an external PD-compliant USB-C hub is mandatory.
Thank you for the clarification.
Is it okay to power the cameras 5V and gnd lines from UNO Q and then think it will work?
Would the camera still be connected via USB for data?
Yes, d+ d- directly to usb c of UNO Q, but power lines on UNO Qs 5v and gnd
Unfortunately, no. The board starts in USB device mode if no USB hub is connected, so it cannot see another USB device.
Thank you,
Will use the Hub then.
