rarimanr Hi all, From datasheet of OAK D S2 POE, it would be possible to control external devices through USB 2.0 interface (M8 connector) I was wondering if there is any example to test this feature. Thanks
erik HI rarimanr , The OAK device is a USB device, not USB host,so it wouldn't be possible to control external devices, only control the device itself through the USB2 interface.
rarimanr Hi Erik, So I can use XLinkIn and XLinkOut nodes to communicate to host board even in standalone mode?
erik Hi rarimanr , No, XlinkIn/Out are only used when you are in "normal mode" (not standalone mode).
rarimanr Hi @erik , So is it possible to use USB 2.0 communication in standalone mode? Thanks for your prompt reply.
erik rarimanr No, not really. If the device is in standalone mode, you can connect to it thorugh USB2 from the host computer, which stops the standalone mode, and you can eg. upload a pipeline, or flash a new pipeline.
rarimanr Oh really? On page 5 of datasheet, it mentions "1) USB: Device supports USB 2.0 interface used as a host to control external devices". I thought that it would be possible to controll external devices. https://github.com/luxonis/depthai-hardware/blob/master/NG9097_OAK-D-S2-PoE/Datasheet/OAK-D-S2-PoE_Datasheet.pdf 🙁
erik rarimanr That is incorrect, we will update the datasheet asap, and we apologize for the inconvenience.
