if it were THAT simple.. there'd be someone on this board with it done already... and they'd probably be selling it as well. Having used this board for 2 weeks now i can say its easily the most hassle-free hub i've used in the car since starting this hobby. You set it and it handles usb devices the same way every time. Not many usb hubs available give you that kind of reliability in the automotive environment
How do I get this 12v hub to power on without supplying it an upstream USB connection? I.e. I want it to turn on when +12v is sensed on the Acc wire.
