Hi,
maybe I am dense. On Windows you see:
secret command -> SET_CONFIGURATION -> {device resets by itself} ->
SET_CONFIGURATION >> 500 mA
don't you? If so, I am suggesting you do:
secret command -> usb_reset_device() -> {device is reset by the hub} ->
SET_CONFIGURATION (from normal probe)
I am speculating that the device firmware has code like:
switch (command) {
case SECRET_COMMAND:
reset_upon_set_config = 1;
full_power = 1;
break;
case SET_CONFIGURATION:
if (reset_upon_set_config) {
reset();
} else {
set_config();
}
So it might not matter how the reset is done.
Regards
Oliver
