Hi All,

I was hoping someone could tell me how to connect 2 USB devices to my Ender 3?

I have a Creality Box (v2) with webcam connects fine on it own.

I have a 3D pad which connects fine and works on its own.

But I was hoping to connect both. Sounds simple enough.

So,

I have tried 5 different splitter cables of all types and a USB splitter block.

I have tried connecting one to the other doesn't work. Only one will ever work correctly.

I have tried USB hubs (powered). Lots of different connections with various USB ends.

I have tried every combination you can think of. Nothing works.

This is something I have spent 6 months of trying and the only thing I can take from it is a bunch of cables.

The only thing I did find is that only one device can be connected at any time.

I also found that some USB cables work and others don't.

The cables that came with the Creality box seem to be different to other USB cables?

Can any one tell me if they have encountered similar problems with Creality cables?

Or, does anyone have a working solution for splitting the printer connection to 2 or more devices.

May I suggest to Creality that if you are going to sell multiple devices that all need the same port that you either make a USB splitter that works or you provide more than one port on the printer. If you could tell me that I am doing something wrong and it will work, please feel free to tell me how to do it.
