Hi Mariss, You will need to add an alternative power source, such as a wall adapter or other power supply. The USB specification imposes limits on current draw. The host first recognizes any peripheral as a low-power device, which is limited to less than 100 mA of current. The peripheral can ask the host to recognize it as a high-power device through a process called enumeration. Once enumeration is complete and permission is granted, the peripheral current limitation increases to 500 mA.
Even 500mA is not enough for 16 outputs at 100mA each, let alone the other power requirements of the G2002. Cheers, Peter.
