DanieldH Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 I have a WM-Connect that I use on different rental units. It seems, it does not do anything on at least 2 different 633 units (FW4.61), but it does work on different 664 units. The 633 USB port is set to host/keyboard. When I plug a keyboard (with an integrated hub) in the USB-A to B cable adapter, it also does not do anything. Has anyone experienced a similar behaviour with 633 and WM-Connect? What am I missing? When I connect the 633 in factory test mode (or at boot time) to a linux computer lsusb finds the "10c4:ea60 Silicon Labs CP210x UART Bridge".

Dalton Patterson Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 The usb port is prolly dirty. Clean ports contacts with a qtip and contact cleaner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalton Patterson Posted February 26, 2022 Report Share Posted February 26, 2022 Or whatever you can get into that port, maybe some specialty flat swabs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clean ports contacts with a qtip and contact cleaner. +1 The USB ports on 6 series get oxidation pretty easily (they not gold connectors). You need something like Deoxit for best cleaning/ remove the oxides. For anything data signal the connectors need to be absolutely clean (USB, RJ45, etc...)

DanieldH Posted March 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 Thnx guys for the input. Both units I experienced where rentals. I've looked into the port (and my connector) with a torch on that weekend. All looked good, as far as I could see, though though was limited. I've first suspected a "geriatric disorder" of the 633 on the USB power or some creeping current in my WM-Connect that 633 handles less well. Your input is a lot more plausible though.
