A500 Mini

Hi there,

Are the 3 USB ports specifically numbered? This is in relation to the gamepad mapping screen, Port 1 and Port 2.

Thank you.

Andy.

I am running my USB stick with Aminimiga and bluetooth dongle for my keyboard unpowered. Never had any outage thusfar.

Native tankmouse and gamepad that comes with the A500 Mini are in the native USB ports though.

Did you experience power issues with an unpowered USB hub?

I have an Un-Powered Hub,
which is OK with Mouse and Pad
but no good for Keyboard (3 LEDs)


NB
My PSU is a 2 Amp version

Use a Wireless USB dongle for battery powered keyboard and mouse and those problems go away! I'd still use a 2A PSU rather than the recommended 1A one though especially for firmware updates. Then an unpowered usb hub is fine even with 4-wired pads!

No that seems to be the normal retail price, I paid something similar in euros when it just launched.
